"TAG-ALONG With Me...day #3"

Wednesday, February 15, 2017

Hello visitors, friends, viewers and followers.
Happy Wednesday (hump day) to you. Your weekend is only two days away...we can make it...I know we can.
 It is a rainy, damp, dreary day in my area.  It's nice and warm inside ...where I'll spend most of my day.  What shall I do?...I'm going to get my fingers "nasty" with inking and stamping.
My goal for this week (something I don't normally do) is to make tags.  I thought I would just do the tags separately but it looks like I love placing them on a card base.
I'm sharing a whimsical one today.
It started out with me looking through some "saved" die cuts that I had in an envelope. I pulled some items together that I thought would make this whimsical card.  The heaviest work was done with the tag.  I used some distress inks (scattered straw...evergreen bough...wild honey...and rusty hinge) before embossing it.  The items used on the tag were already die cut so I didn't need to do that.  After placing the items on the tag, I used some black and yellow Recollections cardstock to make the card base.
So for today's tag...I'm saying to you,  HELLO  SWEET  FRIEND, in such a whimsical way:
