Sending Hugs

While recently digging through my stash, I found some snippets of water colored paper that were large enough to be put to good use, so I searched through my drawer of tiny clear stamp sets and found this one by G Studio from 2008. I bought a lot of these stamp sets at Michael's when they were popular, and I decided to make a tag with this snippet. I used a glaze pen to color the circle around the "1" but the rest of the tag was already pre-colored from a former project. I used a set of unbranded stitched tag dies and added a few Taylored Expressions enamel stickers in green and blue colors. The sentiment is from the same stamp set and says "Redeemable at a Moment's Notice." The background was embossed with a Darice Brick Wall folder and I swiped 2 Distress ink pads over it in the colors of tumbled glass and twisted citron to match the tag, then put it all on a pool party card stock base. The twine was saved from a Lawn Fawn order and the blue and green colors match perfectly.

I'm sharing this with the following challenges:

The Retro Rubber Challenge #113 - anything goes (use stamps older than 1 yr)

Addicted to Stamps and More challenge #346 - anything goes

the Cuttlebug Mania Challenge Tic-Tac-Toe challenge - must use a manual machine to cut and/or emboss - I used my big Shot and the vertical line

Thanks for stopping by and have a great Wednesday!
