Hessian Flower Tag.

Good evening Followers, Friends and Visitors,

I hope you have had an enjoyable  Saturday, the weather here has been lovely, although a little chilly.   Blue skies, fluffy white  clouds and sunshine, what more could we ask for lol!   I have been watching the lambs in the field next to our veggie plot, running and skipping down the hill, so lovely to see.

Tonight I have another tag for you, which I made in February 2017.  This one has been made using the 'hessian flower' stencil, which is so pretty.   I chose to decorate this one  with these particular colours, as they blend together so well and this Sparkle Medium goes well with them too.   I do hope you like it.

   
Cut out a large tag shape from white card, then a slightly smaller white tag.   Colour the smaller tag with the Scattered straw, Shabby shutters and Festive berries, using a blending tool or a piece of cut 'n' dry foam.

 
Lay the stencil onto the now colured smaller tag and rub the green distress ink over the stem and leaves.   Dab the Pink sorbet  Starlight paint onto the flowers, using a piece of cut 'n' dry foam.

  
Spread the Antique Bronze and gold  Sparkle Mediums over the hessian design, using a metal spatula.   Remove stencil and leave the image to dry.

  
In the meantime dab the Starlight paint through the three flowers, using some cut 'n' dry foam, onto a spare piece of white card.   Cut out each petal separately and glue on top of the original image, using silicone glue.   Add a dot of gold shine Sparkle Medium to each flower centre.   Matt this tag onto the larger white tag. 
   
Cut or punch a hole in the centre top of the tag.   Take some cream satin ribbon and colour with the distress inks to match the colours on the tag.

  
Glue a ribbon bow to the tag and thread some through the hole.   Make a stand and glue to the back of the tag so it can be stood up if wished.   Well that's all from me tonight, I will be preparing our evening meal soon, then a night watching the T.V. with my dear Hubby.   Enjoy the rest of your weekend and I will see you again quite soon.

                                                                Love and rainbows,

                                                            Crafty Hugs,   Jennifer xx.
