TIO - Let's Face It

This week, Wanda has set the theme "Let's Face It" for Tag it On so I was going to use one of my (many) stamps with faces on.... but got stuck!  Then, it came to me.  I have this great Stampendous stamp of a smiling sun - not that we've seen much of that recently!
So, ever hopeful that it will encourage the weather to brighten up for Wimbledon tennis - and my birthday at the weekend! - I made this:


I white embossed the sun and coloured the tag with distress inks and shimmered it with sunflower sparkle perfect pearl spray.
I found some feathers in my stash and the text is a Paperartsy stamp.

Hope you come and join in again this week - it was great to see so many of you joining in.  Just remember to use at least one  real stamp
