It just so happens I was right in the middle of a tag swap with my online friend She, so this is the card I made to accompany it. On it I used SMALL BUTTERFLY and PAPILLON SCRIPT.
The tag I made for She also happens to have an insect theme. It uses BIG BEE and DAISY DAISY.(I think it was Big Bee and not average sized Bee, but I dont have the tag anymore to do a quick check unfortunately. It looks like Big Bee)
The tag was originally a blank manilla cream tag but after lots of ink blending, masking and embossing it turned out like this.
The challenge has a $30 gift certificate sitting ready and waiting for one lucky drawn participant. Its the first challenge of the month so therefore ANY stamps are valid for the challenge , but if you own Stampotiques too it would be fab to see them alongside, aslong as an animal, bird or insect appears.
As its such a large value gift certificate, only one entry per artist for the draw please.
I hope you can join in :0)
All the above stamps can be obtained either directly from Stampotique Originals in the USA or Happy Daze here in the UK where Moira carries a wide selection of Stampotiques.
