Anyhow, I decided I could turn this into my entry for Simon Says - show us buttons -
I love this 'fabulous' stamp from Stampotique, it IS fabulous!
Made a tissue tape flower (also inked victorian velvet) and added some buttons to accent the tag.
This was what I really wanted to do with the white ink/distress stain - this is broken china - as I had umbrella man already die cut on a piece from the Kraft Resist paperstack; added some clouds (stampscapes) to a square card, added the Life text, with some gel pen to fill in the letters and the teeny birds; also by Tim. I added a bit of shading under brolly man, to ground him - anyone else think we need a grey distress ink???
Looks like I have a bit of a bird thing going on at present, everything I've blogged lately is bird-themed! It is a coincidence.
