Tissue Tag

Frances third project over on the Paper Artsy blog this week was a tag with crackled tissue paper, you can pop over and see it here.
This is my inspiration from her tag...

I painted some tissue paper with butternut fresco and dried it. I then put a layer of crackle glaze over this and when that was dry some haystack and vanilla. This was stuck onto a size 8 tag...

 Next I stitched around the outside and attached some orange ribbon using a zigzag stitch.

I then added some stamping in vermillion archival using the quote from Jofy 10 and the script from the Sarah Newman set 03. Made a flower from wax paper,added a red flower and pearl to the centre and add a piece of cream coloured tape underneath. Lastly I added some ribbon..

thanks for stopping by...

  1. Gorgeous version of the tag, Lin - not been able to do any of the PA projects this week, not least because I don't have a sewing machine for this one!

  4. Love your choice of colours, they give a summery feel to the tag. Good idea to stitch the ribbon instead of cutting the tag (I thought that was too risky).
