Tag You're It! Challenge #46

Hello friends.  I am honored once again to be guesting with the fabulous ladies over at the Tag You're It! Challenge.  The challenge this time is a fun one...take a look at the inspiration:



Isn't that just the cutest little tag??!!  I took my inspiration from the brick background and the little gnome holding out the flowers and came up with this:


Since I don't own any gnome stamps (dang it!), I used one of the mice from MFT's Harvest Mouse, and then paper pieced her coat and scarf from some scraps, and colored the rest of her with my Copics.  My brick background was done by inking up the inside of a brick embossing folder and then spritzing it with water before placing my cardstock on it and smooshing it down.  The sentiment is also from the Harvest Mouse stamp set.  A few sequins and some bakers twine finished up this fun little tag.

LOTS of really cute inspiration from the DT members, so check them all out and play along right HERE.

Thanks so much for stopping by today...I love it when you do!!  :0)
