Tag Book


I wanted to play with my new Sara Naumann stamps by PaperArsty.


So decided to make a tag book.  I cut 4 tags to different sizes.


This is the full sized #8 one for the back.


I used distress paints through stencils, and brayered on distress stains.


Added various colours of distress inks and more PA stamps from the minis and LB range.


Idea-ology reinforcements and flicks of white Dylusions were added.


And finally I made a piece for the front with a mini tag attached to it.


And this is the tag book put together. You may or may not of noticed that the front piece is now the other way round. I messed up when I was punching the holes!!

PanPastelsUK have an anything goes theme this week.

This looks great, Sam - we'll get you working in a journal yet, with these stamps! I wouldn't have noticed the front tag had changed orientation, lol at that!
