I love the techniques Tim used to complete the May tag.
I started by adding some colour to my tag with distress inks
I then added some dressmaking pattern with mod podge. I stamped the mannequin (I made the stamp using dies and my vagabond) and the stamped the bobbin on to spare card, cut it out and added some cotton. I then machine stitched a piece of tape measure to the side fastened to this I added a cash key which I had added a letter and set with Glossy accents.
My little flowers were dropped into UTEE in my melt pot - love the way it makes them look porcelain. The "vase" was made by sawing a bobbin in half before inking it.
Very pretty tag. Your flowers are aswesome. I was nervous about cutting or sawing so I didn't use a bobin..Love that you did! I haven't tried making my own stamps yet with my Vagabond...You inspired me to try it.
