SNOW

Wow there are some seriously talented people out there, the tags I've seen up to now are absolutely fantastic!

Here is my contribution to the tags, using a snowy picture taken of Chatsworth house a few years ago, I've used quite a large sized tag, I've applied strips of text behind with the picture on top, then a light layer of gesso, a few metal brads, a bit of stamping, inking around the edge, an oversized snowflake painted white, all touched up with a little bit of stickles add a couple of ribbons and my first completed tag!  I had such fun with this and intend on using most of my completed tags on layouts in due course, must remember not to make all my tags quite as large though!
