Crafter's Companion Inspirers DT - Roses are Red my friend !!!

Good morning my dears, I'm here to share my latest
creation as part of the Inspirers Design Team over at

Crafter's Companion

I'made an extra large gift tag using one of Sheena Douglass'
A Little bit Tacky stamps called A Very Rose and coloured
it with Spectrum Noir alcohol pens and a clear 
Spectrum Noir sparkle pen.

The base of my tag is made from a recycled piece of cardboard
which has had the top thin layer of paper removed to leave the 
corrugated lines showing through.  I painted them with Peobeo
Gesso white acrylic paint. I'm really pleased with the 
effect.  I hope you can take a little
inspiration from it.


I will add a list of ingredients used with links to make it
easier for you to go shopping!!  

Thank you so much for popping in to visit. I hope you
come back and see me again soon.

Hugs

Good morning my dears,  I'm here to share a sweet gift box
using lots of fabulous elements from the many wonderful crafty 
items available over at

hold for a dear friend. 

 The whole 8 fit into the interior of the box perfectly. 
You could also use this box to hold other gifts. ie
home made chocolate, jams, soaps etc.
