Challenge # 18

 
MFP Challenge is Anything goes this week.
We would be delighted if you would join us this
week! Stop over and show us your creation.


 Im in tag  and watercolor mode this week so here
 we go with another one.  I started out cutting the
bottom of the tag with a Spellbinder Fancy Tag
 die and the top with the Scalloped Oval die, the
 embossed a strip across the bottom
. Using some Tim Holtz  Dusty Concord &
 Peeled Paint along with some Stampin UP
 Old Olive to created the background. I have
 used the Iris from the Bearded Iris Set.
 After stamping and coloring is twice I cut them
 both out to use on the tag. They looked so flat
 so I added some cheesecloth behind them.
 The butterfly is cut with a Cherry Lynn die
 and jewels added. The sentiments are from the
 Today Tomorrow and Forever Set & the       .
The ribbon was dyed to match. Although you
 cant really see them their are some
 purple sequins scattered too.





I love Irises, they come in such a wide array of  colors
making them so versatile, able to use in all kinds of
combinations. I actually colored up several different ones
but the yellow turned out to look the best with the
background so yellow it was! It is a great one to color and cut out.
Check it out along will all the  other GREAT sets at the MFP Shop.

The sequins and jewels show up here.

You can see the embossed border a little better here.
