Grunge Tags

These tags where so much fun to make, but boy did it take a LONG time!!! I made a total of 6 tags for a swap that I signed up for on Splitcoaststampers. The theme to this swap is "Grunge"...doing techniques like Tim Holtz. I kinda stayed in my comfort zone and did the collage type, but I did add a lot of detail to these. I first tore pages from a super old book and a music book. Glue the pages down, then I did sponging around the edges, then added Copper, Gold, and Aqua paint with a piece of paper towel....did a little bit of stamping and of course I had to add a fairy! I don't take the best photos and I think these tags looks much better in person! Let me know what you think! ~Hugs~

P.S. You can click on the picture to see them better!

Pretty COOL, Carrie! I like them, and I think your photo of them is very good. I clicked on it to enlarge and see all the detail. I haven't started mine yes.
