AAA Cards - Game #68 Tags

Oh my, it's July and that means we're into the second half of the year already! And it also means it's time for a new challenge at AAA Cards.

And look at the colours I've used! Well that's a bit of a surprise and I love their hot summery feel.


I started by watercolouring a piece of card and die cutting the stitched tag shape. Then I die cut two outline leaf shapes and placed them over the opposite holes. Love how this brings the pink down and the orange up!


The tag was popped up on pads and a simple sentiment was stamped to finish off my card.

Supplies:
Stamp: Uniko, All Occasion Sentiments #6
Inks: Memento, tuxedo black; Ranger distress, spiced marmalade, picked raspberry, mustard seed
Dies: MFT Die-namics, stitched traditional tag stax; Marainne, leaves

And you know there's going to be loads of fabulous inspiration from the DT over at AAA Cards, but I'm really excited to have Hannelie from Desert Diva Guest Designing with us for this challenge. Her cards are always so crisp, clean and distinct, make sure you take a good look round her blog.

Thanks for your time, your visit to my blog is greatly appreciated.  And keep crafting!
