Tag in a tag

Good Evening!

The current challenge at Beyond Grey Challenges is to make a tag with textures. I surely wanted to play along because I just love textures.

Enjoyed playing along with texture paste (homemade) & Tim Holtz layering stencil (rays) to create the base. Blended distress inks (mustard seed, spiced marmalade, rusty hinge & fired brick) over this several times. I then placed the stencil over the tag again.............this time I placed the design between the textured rays & then misted water to create some more rays! Take a closer look between the textured rays & you will know what I mean. The script was stamped over this diagonally as if emerging from the rays & the sentiment stamped on another cardstock & glued with foam dots. A beach chair charm dangling over the awesome trim coordinates so well with the sentiment. The bottom of the tag with metal corners has a little vellum pocket for another tag which is made from shrink plastic!  You have to see this tag in person to admire the super shimmer of the wink of stella over the textured rays.

I enjoyed making this so much that I have already started with another tag & writing this post while the background dries! So please do stop by again tomorrow.
