What if? A tag for today's project.

Hi Everyone it's Brenda here with you today and I have a tag today for you using some stamps and paper from Tim Holtz.

I began with a mop-up tag from my box. I always use up inks and paints left on my craft mat and this gives me some great starting points for projects – like this one today. I honestly can’t tell you what the colours are, but this fitted perfectly with the colour paper I had chosen to use.

The paper is from the wallflower stash, I cut and tore it to size and then added some stencilling and stamping to provide more interest.

I stamped some other things and gathered all my bits together having a good idea of the composition in my head.

However when I start putting things together I often make changes and this time was no different. Can you spot the big change I made?

I also added some chit-chat stickers, a stamped question mark and the bow and cash key.

The stencil challenge is almost at an end, you have a couple of days to get your entry in if you haven’t already. There are some fabulous entries, do pop over and take a look if you can.

Take care and thanks for joining me today.

hugs Brenda xx
