BLOOM

This week I am showcasing the PHYSALIS HUMMINGBIRD stamp set from Katzelkraft.
I decorated the background of my tag with Spiced Marmalade and Broken China Distress Inks, applying the inks to a non-stick craft sheet, spritzing with water and then mopping up the beads of ink with the tag.
I applied Monarch Orange and Potting Soil Archival Inks to my stamp and then stamped the image three times onto the tag.
I used Bontanical Remnant Rubs to add the bird and other elements to the background for added interest.
BLOOM has been added to the tag using Label Letters and I have included a letter 'B' for BLOOM. I have also stamped the leaves from the focal image to the top of my tag. Natural twine adds a rustic element to my design.

Thanks so much for stopping by. Tracy x x
