On Go Tag Thursday the theme is 'In the garden' where I am spending a lot of time at the moment.
I started out by using distress oxides on the tag and then used a new die cut. This was good in theory, but when it came to it, it was a real pain. The die cut ended up as a load of flowers in different shapes and sizes, and a large negative where the flowers once resided. I cut another one so I could use different colours in each negative. Are you keeping up with this !!! I have made two tags ( will put the other one on at the weekend) and used the different coloured negatives with the cut out flowers. Did I have enough, no I didn't. Did they all fit back into the holes, no they didn't.
I then stamped the saying and the little gardener. Some paper and fabric flowers finished it off. I dread to think how long this took.
I am also entering this on Try it on Tuesday, where the theme is tags.
