Hello everyone,
The sun arrived, now I'm hot and want the rain again, I'm never satisfied, just wish it didn't get so HOT!!
Never mind, it is not too bad as long as the breeze comes in the front door from the sea..loverly..
Right, I'm here for some more tags and had fun with this one..
these tags I made ages ago, the were collaged with scrap papers, and glued very heavily and they are soooo thick and crunchie.
But when I went to stamp my postage stamps and things,
I had to change ink as not a lot showed..
but changed to stazon and things went better..
Ran out of my postage striped papers I had last time, so printed this one out and squished it together to make the stripes tighter...
then inked it as it was too white..
Stamped the Airmail stamp, trimmed it and popped it onto the striped papers..
on an angle..
and there you go, perfectly crooked and not even..
I also stamped bugs then cut then out with postage die
and glued them on my tags..
Then got out all my bug stickers, and stuck a big bug on the background
of each tag and animal stickers onto card stock and postage cut them out but smaller..
then everything fell into place and I gave them a light white splattering and all was well...
Thank you so much for stopping by,,
I'll see you tomorrow
luv CHRISSYxx

I think a white splattering always does the job :)) I love your tags Chrissy, gorgeous. xx
I wonder how many elements have gone into the creation of these little beauties, loads of different papers in the base layer alone, then you go on to build up the design with all those stamps, die cuts and stickers...the result is amazing! xx
These are just gorgeous Chrissy. You are such an amazing tag maker! For my tag tomorrow I have gone with the mini envelopes but never thought to use striped paper...doh! Thanks for playing along with Sandie's theme at Tag Tuesday.

So much work has gone into this fabulous make and it shows. Love how you did the airmail paper. Thanks for sharing with us at Allsorts.
WOW, another set for gorgeous stamps, they are fab.
Thank you so much for playing along with us at Tag Tuesday.xx
These tags have turned out lovely my friend! The postage details with the images and the striped paper around the air mail i so fun along with your splattering!
Great base to your tags using your scraps, that is what I usually do in my junk journals. Glad you found an ink that would work on it, the faux postage looks great with all the stamping and images on them, the splattering tops them off nicely.
Hope it cools down a bit for you.
Awesome tags!!!
