I used distress inks in vintage sepia, walnut stain, broken china and faded jeans for all the elements within the tag. Having distressed the background I stamped a Hero Arts collage stamp over it and painted parts of the butterfly with distress inks. I die cut the weathered clock, butterflies and on the edge fence out of cardstock and distressed them using the same distress inks. I stamped over the top of the butterflies using a Tim Holtz stamp, inked up in walnut stain distress ink, and added some flat backed pearls. Finally I added and adage ticket and some seam binding to finish the tag off.
