Tag You're It!
Today I want to share some tag love with you!
I just love creating vintage grungy tags!
Stamps Used:
I chose to start with some scrapbook paper I had left over from a project. I created a 3x6 in tag and used various brown distress inks to ink the edges and add a bit of color through a Tim Holtz layering stencil.
Using Archival ink, I then stamped my row of numbers and my scribble circle.
To add visual interest I ripped up some scrap pieces of book pages then glued them down. To make them pop, yet blend i used brown distress ink to watercolor around the edges. I wanted this piece to be grungy, so added flicks of vintage photo and antique linen distress stain.
To finish everything I mounted this tag on a piece of dark brown card-stock, and stitched around it. I stamped my train on a separate piece of paper and inked it to match the tag. When it was just like I wanted I added some string in the area of the scribble circle and glued the train down on pop-dots.
The stickers and metal tab I used are both by Tim Holtz
