Simon Says Stamp - Wednesday Challenge

 Hello friends! Today I decided to enter a challenge! I find that challenges are a great way to not only fire up the crafty mojo but to also give you an opportunity to dust off some products that you may not have used in awhile!

I decided to enter the current Wednesday Challenge over on the Simon Says Stamp Blog. It combines two of my favourite things:  Tim Holtz and tags!!

I used the largest of the Tim Holtz Framelits Tags. To create the background, I used a variety of acrylic paints and my fingers to apply. This is my favourite way to get a fun background. I then used a whole bunch of stencils to create layers and patterns.

Next, I dug through my stash and found the Arched Leaf and Flower Blooms die set from Simon. To go along with these flowers and leaves, I used the TH Feathered Friends dies. After everything was cut out, I used Gina K Designs inks to add colour.

I played around a little with the arrangement and used a combination of liquid glue and foam adhesive to adhere everything. 

The sentiment comes from an older TH die set called Pondering Words.

This tag fits onto a card base measuring 6.25 X 3.5.

Thanks for dropping by! See you soon!
