The Craft garden challenge


We have a recipe challenge for you this month ...Your challenge is to choose 4 of the ingredients from the following list chosen by the design team:
Kerry - buttons
Luanne - banner
Helen - flowers
Kelly - Pink
Eleni - ribbon
Cathy - a tag
Emma - Sparkle

I went for a tag, creating one using my TH tag die.  I liberally misted it with tattered rose glimmer mist and distressed it using my TH tool and vintage photo distress ink.  Then I stamped a Hero Art script stamp over it in versamark, before embossing it with aged ivory embossing powder.  The cute fairy is Knitted with love from Sugar Nellie, and she is coloured with promarkers.  I glamour dusted her wings, pompoms and hat trim before cutting her out.  The dp is Prima Botanical and I added TH adage tickets, and a layered flower created using my TH tattered floral die.  Both the flower and tags have been distressed with vintage photo and tattered rose glimmer mist.  Some lace and pearls finish it of.  The ribbon has also been glimmer misted - not that you can really see it LOL!!
