Altered Tags with Tim Holtz inks, paint and stencils and more...

I joined a group of talented ladies who from time to time swap things.  This particular swap was for two Altered Tags.  This took me well out of my element but was so incredibly fun!!!  The best part is you REALLY CAN'T MESS THIS STUFF UP!!!  The freer you are with all the elements the more it comes to life!  I used a wide range of distress inks, paints, stencils and stamps.  I also embellished with some dyed ribbon, charms and washi tape. 

I have also entered Darlene's very first challenge at Livelovecards!!!!!!  So excited for you Darlene and thrilled to play along with all the other talented crafters who love you as much as I do!  Here's to many more challenges and let the FUN BEGIN!!!

Hugs!
