France has been inspiring us again this week over on the PA blog. I adapted her day #3 tag technique with the tissue paper, fresco paint, stencilling and stamping.
I then added the stitching.
And finally the embellishments and the finished tag.
Now I don't normally do this, but as I was reading down the list, all these challenges just seemed to fit together perfectly.
Dragons Dream - TIO - have a recipe of vintage, texture and flowers, and you have to include at least one real stamp, so I stamped the PA french script in the background using timber brown stazon.
**Edited** I made top 3 for this tag
Stampotique's theme this week is 'French flair', hence the Eiffel tower die image and French script stamping.
Simon says stamp challenge have a theme of 'pin it' where they want to see our pins, paper clips etc, so I've added a hat pin to the hessian, the scroll is a type of paper clip and the destiny tag is attached to the ribbon with a mini safety pin.

Sam this is great...loving the colours and do I spot a new die??? and another flower!! no really Sam love it!!!
What a great tag, and well done for getting in on the TIO challenge - I did wonder, with flowers in the recipe if you would manage it!!! This looks gorgeous.
very cool tag Sam. stitching does it for me every time.
Flowers??? Sparkly ribbon???? Are you sure you're feeling alright??? ;-)) Seriously, that is a GORGEOUS tag. I love all the textures.
Your tag "ala France(Papillon)" came out beautifully, Sam! I did not have such good luck with mine, yet! And, in the end, it definitely has a lot of French flair to it! Bravo!
Fabulous tag!
Oh lala that's French allright. And why not combine the challenges? Your tag is a beauty and you may show it in every challenge!!

Really love this one Sam. The neutral colours are gorgeous and I love how the hessian and stitching tie in together too. Well done you on using a flower, lol! For me it would be harder if they said DON'T use a flower ;D!
