A tag it is..........

Playing around in the craft room (obviously having a good day!) and saw this little scrap

of kraft paper just sitting there.  To small for a card.  What to do.  Well, it was almost the

shape of a tag, and I very rarely do a tag (can't remember the last one.  Maybe for a gift a

Christmas last year.....)

Well, a tag it is!

Actually turned out OK.  I'm not very 'into' the shabby, distressed look but I like the way this came out.  Guess I would call it grungy!  I know I was sure inked up by the time I was done.

The butterfly is from Our Craft Lounge.  They have a spectacular selection of stamps (clear and rubber) to choose from at really reasonable prices.  They also just finished a blog hop for their new releases.

The "pearls" are actually liquid pearls (except for those over the flowers).  The pearls over the flowers are on little clear, stiff filaments.  Bought a bunch in a bag at a garage sale for a quarter!  Gotta love a great deal!

The flowers, brads, button and seam binding are all from my stash.  The twine is from The Twinery.  The whole tag was sprayed with gold 'Smooch Spritz'.
