WMSC #38




I made a little something for Waltzingmouse's Sketch Challenge this week, and most importantly, I got it uploaded on time, LOL! I decided to make a tag, not something I do often--but the design just cried out for one, don't you think? Although I'm not particularly knowledgeable about it, I love Asian design & art and think Claire's Asian-influenced sets are just gorgeous. I don't have anyone in mind to give this to yet, but when I do, I'll make a card for the occasion to go with it. (And put a gift inside, of course!) :-D

P.S. They're hard to see, but there are three clear rhinestones on the tag where the three buttons are on the sketch.

Supplies
Stamps: WMS--Asian Gardens & Faux Fun Circles
Paper: PTI--True Black & S.S. White; DCWV--Cotton Bloom Stack
Ink: Versafine--Onyx Black; Embossing Powder--Filigree Clear

GORGEOUS!!!! Asian Gardens and Faux Fun Circles are my two favorite WMS stamps. I love the color combo and how you turned the circle into a tag. Im definitely gonna keep your gift bag in mind the next time I need one!

Wow! I don't think I have ever seen such a glorious Asian inspired tag before. This is so cool. It just works so well. You have dressed that bag up so beautifully it simply astounds. Mighty talented you are.

This is amazing! I love the combo of the two sets and the crispness of the black, white and red. Oh, and that ribbon is the perfect addition!! Great job with the challenge this week and thank you for playing along with Waltzingmouse!!

What a nice take on the sketch. I love that you decided to use it as a tag! The colors are so classic. I have a WM set that I love and would love to start building my supply.

Fantastic card.

This is really cool! IS that a ribbon under the big circle? I can't quite tell but ribbon or stamps, it's just so neat!
