Wings Tag

The current challenge over on Tag Tuesday is Wings and this tag fits the bill well.

I received some amazing mop up pieces and happy mail from Liz Berlinger all the way from Canada a while back.  When they arrived, even the envelope had been decorated and I kept it to cut up and use as backgrounds.  It was just right for a quick project.  I added a section to a #8 manilla tag, sealed it with distress collage medium, dried and trimmed.
As the background itself was already perfect, I took colours and themes that had been used on it already and created a flag topper using the three largest Stitched Flag dies by Sue Wilson in black, rose gold and white.  I used all the teeny weenie bird stamps that I could find from various Claritystamp sets (Family Miniatures, Woodland Miniatures, Garden Miniatures, Nativity Miniatures and Whimsical Miniatures) and stamped them onto the white tag using Onyx Black Versafine ink, then went over with some Antique Linen Distress Oxide to better match the background of the tag.
This was added to the tag and the top trimmed level.
The final touch was to add a couple of the Small Talk stickers by Tim Holtz idea-ology.

You made great use of your gifted scraps Sarah. Your tag reminds me of stormy skies when the birds are scattering everywhere. Love it! Thanks so much for joining us at Tag Tuesday.
