Hello, and welcome to another challenge from the Dragons.. This fortnight, it's the choice of Catherine, who'd like you to use purple, and circles, on your tag. This one was great fun!
I started with a size 10 tag, and a Prima stencil, and Dylusions paint (crushed grape). Then took a JoDY flower - stamped it onto the tag, and then just the heads onto book text paper, cut that out and painted it with Purple Rain Fresco paint, stuck the head onto the stems.. saves trying to cut teeny thin stems from paper!
added a third JoFY round flower stamp and painted that - this one is on tissue, so it's painted Snowflake from behind to make the colour pop on front.
took a small tag and stamped a JoFY text, and added some more circles in the Dylusions paint (this is a Lin Brown stencil for Paperartsy)
Finished with some pinky-purple ribbon, edged the tags with the Dylusions paint (there was enough left on the cut and dry foam) and mounted the small tag with pop dots.
Hope you'll come and see what the others have dreamt up for you, and join in - don't forget to use one real stamp somewhere on your tag.

Love this, Helen! Lin's stencil is great for doing a circle project and I loved how you used the Jofy stamps and the book text too! I don't use purple that much and I found myself really having fun with this one too!xxx
Loving all the purple dottiness Helen, or is that spottiness, but you now what I mean.

A fabulous tag with great background.
Aren't these a garden of fun flowers! I like your take on this challenge. Pretty tones of purple.
Really lovely, great background with all that white showing thru - it really makes the purple pop against it X
