live the life you've imagined 41

Mona Pendleton | Thursday, March 27, 2014 @ 9:25 PM | , , , ,

Hi there! I'm so excited that this weekend is FINALLY here! My 26 year old dear son, Jerry is marrying his sweet and beautiful sweetheart, April :) I'm pretty sure all the loose ends are tied and now we just need to make it through the rehearsal before the big day! I'm hoping Scott will capture a few photos at the wedding and if so, I will be sure to share one or two :)

I had some time to play so I made this tag using a variety of some fun products. 
To create this tag, I started with a blank Ranger tag, applied various Distress paints, added texture using a Tim Holtz stencil and molding paste then embellished with a beautiful blossom that was made using Spellbinders Tattered Blossoms dies. 
I finished it off with a die cut chipboard butterfly which I added texture to as well then painted using gold paint:
Thanks so much for stopping by ~ I hope you have a great weekend!
Be Sweet ;)

Imagine you had a wonderful weekend with such a happy family occasion! This tag is just stunning, Mona! Just dawned on me that maybe I should try working on a tag--not as overwhelming for me. I have stencils & paste & paints & even the Tattered Florals die, so I'm going to see what I can do using this for help. Thank you!
