Tag Swap

Susan is hosting a tag swap Studio 490 style on the EverythingWendyVecchi Yahoo Group and these are my tags.  I'm assigned a large tag, #8, with horizontal orientation.  I started by cutting the end of my tags with the Tim Holtz On The Edge die scallops... added Distress Ink wild honey to the whole tag and brushed corduroy around the edges... stamped the circles with Archival Ink coffee, the dots with Archival Ink olive, and the leafy image with Archival Ink jet black.   The saying is stamped on a piece cut from an old manila folder with jet black... wild honey to color with barn door and brushed corduroy around the edges and black on the very edge.  Flower was stamped with jet black on grungepaper, color added with barn door and bundlled sage, text stamped over just the flower part with coffee and then the whole thing cut out.  Two birds were stamped on grungepaper with Archival Ink crimson for each tag... one was cut out whole and the other just the wing cut out...  birds and wings colored with worn lipstick.  Black Glaze pen for the bird eye, dots along bottom of saying and added over dots of leafy image.  An Ideology snap added on the flower and fibers to finish it off.
