Schtuff At Home - Snow

Like everyone else I am stunned with the beautiful tags being posted. There is such a variety of looks and techniques and materials, it's endless!

My contribution:

The base is a 4 3/4" x 2 3/8" manilla tag. (I looooove office supplies.) I had a mis-step first, as I tried to do a transparency transfer atop of a painted background. The transfer didn't want to adhere and slipped around in naughty fashion. I tried again on a plain tag and had the cleaner results I was looking for. Now the watercolor didn't want to adhere to the areas where the matte medium had been used for the transfer. Fortunately I like the look that created and went on to add snowflake stamps in white and silver ink. Finally a few rhinestones for bling and done!

Can't wait for the coming weeks and what everyone will produce! Cheers!

    Sometimes, the best results happen as a result of an accident! Your tag is lovely, I especially like the writing. Looking forward to seeing your next tag.
