I am a big Graphic 45 fan, as well, so today I decided to make a tag with G45's "The Ladies' Diary" collection. Although you may think I have used burlap, all my tag layers are actually paper! I fussy cut one of the G45 ladies in her rose and green gown along with some coordinating flowers, added a bit of bling, and the word "Beautiful," also from the collection. I added a Dylusions background stamp for texture and some pink leather strapping.
So, there you have it: expresso, chestnut and rose and a beautiful tag to send to my sister while she is recuperating from surgery!
Thanks for stopping by today to see what I'm up to in my studio. I would be pleased if you would join as a follower, if you have not already done so, and then leave a message so that I will know you were here.
Joy to you!
This is so lovely, Kay, and this would have to be my favourite collection from Graphic 45.

ReplyDeleteOh Kay, I love this tag! I really like the juxtaposition of the fancy lady & the pearls against the burlap! I hope your sister is OK... xo
ReplyDeleteThanks for the compliments, Eniko! I love the unexpected, like jeans and pearls, and, therefore, used the burlap against the "fancy" side of this tag! It's fun!
DeleteGreat tag. Really thought that was burlap and was trying to work out how you got those neat little diamond shapes!! Silly me. Love that sassy lady
