vintage tag


Haven't got round to doing Theme Thursday challenge for a while so thought I would have a go this week, the challenge is for a vintage tag and I really enjoyed making this one, used my new B line netting stamp for the background,image is a rub on from La Blanche, I have had them a while and they need using up ! I had not realised until recently that rub ons have a shelf life and think a lot of mine have passed their use by date, did eventually manage to get it to work though. Little lace doily,paper lace I have had for ever,buttons, flowers and fancy pins, got a bit carried away ! I aged and distressed the ribbon with my heat gun, had almost forgotten about doing that,love how it shrivels and curls ... (little things please little minds as they say! )
