Hello! How's your week goin' so far? Mine? Just wonderful! Today over at My Creative Time it's Tag It Tueday, and I wanted to try something a bit different...a tag on vellum. In all the years of papercrafting I don't think I've created something where the base was vellum. I could be totally wrong though :)
This won't work with all vellum, since most are too flimsy. I used Papertrey Ink's vellum, it's super strong, yet still sheer. I LOVE using it!
Being in California I know we haven't had that hard of a winter...in fact we are in our 2nd or 3rd year of a drought. Water is always a big issue here, so they always cry "DROUGHT" even when it's just below the norm :/ However, I'm still looking forward to a true spring (we did have a warm weekend) so I came up with this fun tag.
On the white background square, I stamped a mix of "script" and "splats". For the tree after stamping and putting it all together I thought it was lacking something...so out came the wink of stella shimmer. Some type of sparkle always seems to finish it up for me. :)
On the green "doily" I used the scallop circle die then hole punched the scallops.

The vellum is a cool sheer backdrop for your sweet hint of spring tree with the one leafy branch. Love the spatters and wink sparkle. Great job
