White~Snow Rose Tag

Snow Rose
Perfect tag for the weather. Snowing, blowing, and all around Michigan winter. Cardboard tag gessoed. Rose made from paper towel and tissue paper sewn in a circluar pattern. Two flowers put together and the edges turned up with a little Sierra Chalk to define the shape. (The sewing is new to me. I used my mom's old Singer portable. Just great for going through layers. No fancy stitches or attachments.) Old button with sparkle added. Leaves cut from card stock, scored... same glitter. Tissue folded into a fan at the top. Around the outside is what I think is blanket edging. Topped with old lace and a little recycled tag. Loved this challenge and love all of the inspiring artwork. You guys ROCK!
