Simon Says Stamp Challenge: Tag It!

This week's Wednesday Challenge for Simon Says Stamp is to create a tag.  Here's mine:
Materials Used

  • No. 8 Manila Shipping Tag
  • Distress Inks--Wild Honey, Crushed Olive, Gathered Twigs
  • water mister; heat tool--to create background with the Distress Inks
  • gold thread, gold organza ribbon, brown satin ribbon, narrow brown striped ribbon
  • Tim Holtz metal pieces--gears, brads, jump rings, LISTEN charm, pin, attacher on chain, corner
  • other metal pieces--brads, clock hand
  • gold beads; gold glitter dots; pale yellow tiny pearl
  • images from Altered Pages/corset ads
Here's a close-up of the focal images:
I think it's funny that the ad for glove fitting corsets is from the Thomson Company.  I wonder if some of my English ancestors spelled our last name this way!

Geeze, nothing like a "glove fitting corset" to make your day. Like the tag better than THAT sentiment. Connie
