Today I have another tag to show you. This was something I started a while back and never finished because I just wasn't feeling it at the time. The lesson here is, if you're not sure what you want to do next, sometimes it is good to just stop, walk away, and come back to it another time.
I had gotten this far with my tag about a month ago:
I inked the tag with vintage photo, added a bunch of Tim Holtz's tissue tape, inked the tag with a french script stamp and black ink, and brushed the entire tag with white gesso. The edges of the tag were painted with Ranger's black paint dabber.
I have one of those old style letter punches, and I stamped a distressed piece of paper with the word 'travel' in black archival ink.
I had a few label plates but they were all a bright silver, so I painted one of the plates with black gesso and let it dry. I put the 'travel' title under the label plate, and added it to the tag with two black brads. I used Tim Holtz's bingo pieces in black to add the word 'go' to the tag as well.
Next, I took a flat bottle cap charm and punched out a one inch circle of patterned paper to fit inside it (glossy accents worked really well to adhere the paper to the bottle cap).
Now I've finally finished my tag!
Thanks for looking!
