Tag You're It Challenge #4

Good morning friends.  Playing along with the Tag You're It Challenge today, and I'll apologize ahead of time for my poor lighting...should have been a little more patient and waited for some sunshine!  My poor tag looks a little washed out, when in real life, it's a lot brighter!  Grrrrr!!  Anyway, take a look:


It's my stenciled background (Memory Box "Textured Shine") that looks so washed out.  I used Pixie Pink and Calypso Coral inks to sponge on the color on my tag (PTI "Tag Sale #3).  I used Memory Box's Fuschia Flower die for my flower, and although you can't see it, I also used my clear Wink of Stella pen on the flower...VERY sparkly IRL!  I added a tag (PTI's "Tiny Tags") that I added some washi tape to, seam binding ribbon (dyed with Certainly Celery re-inker), black & white baker's twine, and a few rainstones from PTI.  I have some wrapping paper that matches this tag, and I know my friend will appreciate it when I add it to her birthday gift this weekend! :0)

Here is the inspiration photo:



There's still lots of time to play along, so check out all the great inspiration, and make a tag of your own!  You can find all the details right here .

Edited to add:  I am wowed and honored to have been chosen as one of the runner up winners of the TYI!C #4 ...what a wonderful surprise to wake up to this morning!  Thank you ladies!! :0)

Thanks so much for stopping by and have a great Tuesday! :0)

Beautiful tag, Marcia! Your stenciling IS bright, and a lovely bg for the bloom and rainstones. I love how you added the tag in b/w, and then a pop of color in the bow. Your friend will love it!

Marcia - adding my applause and cheers to the others: your tag is gorgeous! The stenciling is a most lovely background for the fushia, the sentiment and the sweet embellies! Your friend will love this, as do I!
