I coloured a tag that I had embossed using the french script folder using salty ocean then added walnut ink to the raised parts & edges.
On a separate piece of turquoise paper I stamped the tim Holtz butterflies & moths in walnut ink & clear embossed, then overstamped with the french script in salty ocean.
Having mounted this piece onto the tag, I wrapped the whole thing with some brown & turquoise machine embroidery threads. I then added sequins, a butterfly & ribbon rosette from my new stash and added threads as a tie at the top as well as adding some gathered lace along the bottom.
And then I decided to use the other French folder Eiffel tower....
Again, I embossed a tag, added some colour, mowed lawn, squeezed lemonade & broken china.
I embossed a piece of dark gray card for the Eiffel tower, cut it out & mounted on some foam pads onto the tag. Did the same with a piece of gold card for the fleur de lys and mounted with. Ore foam pads. The words are stamped onto some card coloured with Mowed Lawn & stamped with archivall black. (clear choice stamps)
I finished off with some yellow ribbon tied with green embroidery floss.
These are not my usual colours at all but felt I wanted to try something different...because I could :-)
Hope you like them.
