A Good Vintage.

I took a bit of a different approach to the vintage theme, not being a vintage type of person, but a great lover and indulger of the grape in its finest form, so I have used the term A Good Vintage :)

Here is my interpretation of the Green (Grape) Man who's presence will ensure a bumper crop to produce a Good Vintage. I have had itchy fingers recently so this was a good excuse to play with a bit of polymer clay and sculpt this cheery little face. He is mounted on a box board tag with was coloured with distress inks and moon mist


I hung him in my runner bean plant to take the pics :). If you would like to see a little more of how I made the tag, I will be putting a post on my blog later.

I have loved looking at all the beautiful tags again this week, so many great stories that really make your tags so much more than just something to look at.

UMMMMM Lace, not really a lacy person either?? Can't wait to see what is in store for us for Feb.
