Spring Break has been wonderful but it has zoomed along...as it always does! Tonight I managed to get crafty. My inspiration came from the project over at Tag You're It. I absolutely loved the neutral colours with the pops of red! I was thinking about using butterflies but then I remembered the Rain or Shine Challenge over at Simon Says Stamp. I have a great rain stamp set from Verve and I remembered their Viva la Verve CAS sketch for this week! So I switched out the circle for a tag and I was on my way!
I stamped the sentiment on the bottom of the card to mimic the "wheat" on the inspiration tag and to also make the sketch requirements.
I hope you can see how I was inspired. I added the twine for some texture and also to match the twine in the Tag inspiration.
This is adorable!
ReplyDeleteDarling tag design, Lesley! Love the warm tone and layering! Beautiful showcase of these stamps! So glad that you join the fun over Simon Says Stamp Wednesday “Come Rain or Shine” Challenge!
ReplyDeleteLove this card. The colours and the layout are fabulous. Great when the challenges come together and the 'tag' on the front works really beautifully.
ReplyDeleteThis is lovely, Lesley :)

ReplyDeleteWhat a great card Lesley. Beautiful work.
ReplyDeleteLesley this is such a sweet tag and card! Love the layers and how you were inspired with the pops of red translated into red gingham umbrellas!! Thank you so much for sharing with us at Tag You're It!
ReplyDeleteAwesome layout Lesley and such soft colours. That gingham makes those umbrellas pop perfectly. Love it!
ReplyDeleteYour little gingham umbrellas are so cute Lesley, sweet card!!
ReplyDeleteLesley...this is so pretty!
ReplyDeleteFabulous tag, I should pull out one of my umbrella stamps (it poured here this week) and love that you left your tag "naked" (something I struggle with in regards to my ribbon addiction problem). Thanks for joining us at Tag You're It Challenge.
ReplyDeleteOh, that gingham umbrella makes me happy! Love how you used the sentiment as your bottom panel. Thanks for joining us over at Viva la Verve!
ReplyDeleteWell, if it's possible to have a happy rainy day theme, you did it! Love those sweet umbrellas, and your sentiment treatment! Just adorable, Lesley! Thanks for joining in the fun at TYI!
