Tag time! I have never done tags before. Not a single one. Until some blank tags came in the May Flying Unicorns kit of the month- Coffee and Muse.
I decided to stretch a little here and make one bold and colorful and not typical Jennifer vintage style by adding a whole bunch of bright Clearsnap Mixd Media Inx on the edges in Butternut, Schoolhouse, Vintage and Mossy.
Using the goodies from the kit, below are the results of my experiments. I am hooked now in tags.
This is my softer tag, a little more tame. My Garden tag. The background is from a catalog. I liked the colors and drew from that as my inspiration. Just so happened that some of the Prima embelishments from the kit matched nicely.

This is my Vintage Bird tag. I love rich vintage colors, earthy and golden tones.
So come and play with us at the Flying Unicorns. You do not need to buy a kit to join in on the challenges and the conversation. We are not exclusive like that.
