I made this tag for this week's FTTC24 challenge which was to make a tag, and also for this month's Dirty Dozen challenge CT0709 - Tropical Paradise. When I saw this month's theme, this wonderful new Beach Life set from Flourishes popped into my head!I stamped the images in Palette Black and then colored with a mixture of copic markers and sponging. I then added the sentiment, which who am I kidding...I wish I was there! LOL!! Also, once I stamped the sentiment I got the Jimmy Buffett song in my head "The Weather is Here, Wish You Were Beautiful!" LOL!! Love Jimmy!! :)
Okay back to my tag, I used the deckle nestabilities to frame my image and then placed it on a manila tag, which was sponged with creamy caramel and close to cocoa. To finish off the tag, I added some brads, and a fun mixture of ribbons and fibers.
Thanks so much for visiting! Have a great day!!
Connie
