Tag You're It 60!

Thanks abound at a lot of challenges lately.  It's that time of year and I decided to combine my newest project, for Tag You're It, with a few thanks challenges.  Our featured artist at Tag You're It is Diane Jaquay and she has given us this beautiful tag with warm colors and lots of leaves to CASE.


I tried to keep true to the colors and the overall leafy design and added a few touches of gold in the die cut sentiment, the ribbon, and the cord (none of which look gold in this pic - a photographer I am not).

There's a "thankful" challenge at The Paper Players and the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge so I'm going to add my tag there.  And incidentally, this tag is not just a tag.  I can easily stick it to a card front and I've got an easy peasy card.


Thanks for stopping by.  And stop by the Tag You're It challenge to check out the tags  from our design team.  I hope you'll be inspired to join us in the gallery!

This is so pretty - I love the way you picked up the colors, watercolor and fall theme of Diane's tag and made it all your own! So beautiful!

Jen this tag is beautiful! I love the way you created the blended background and the splatter detail, along with those gorgeous fall leaves. So clearly inspired by the tag challenge yet so unique and perfect for our Thankful challenge over at The Paper Players this week - thanks for joining us!
