Valentine Tag

Sir Tim has decided to take a new direction with his tags - instead of doing twelve tags at Christmas, he will be doing one a month now. Here's his blog post and link to his valentine tag.

Also the challenge this week at Studio L3 is  "Who Loves Ya Baby?" using at least one Tim's product or technique, and is sponsored by  www.SimonSays.com

So last night, I made this tag:

I  cut a tag using the TH Alterations Movers & Shapers tag die from Ranger manilla cardstock. For the background I followed Tim's technique, but instead of using the paint dabber on a rubber stamp, I painted the dabber on the raised areas of my Cuttlebug "Heart Blocks" folder before inserting the tag. When I ran it through the Bug, the paint transferred to the manilla cardstock in the debossed areas. Then I followed the rest of his technique with the distress inks, wiping of the paint resist, and misting.

Now for all the other details:
-Bingo Card is an acrylic stamp by Stampers Anonymous done in black with sponging in Spun Sugar, Pumice Stone and Fired Brick distress inks. I placed a metal heart embellie over the #14 on the card.
-Cupid is a Quickutz die with red stickles. His arrow is pointing to the #14.
-Heart is cut from Spellbinders Scalloped Heart die. White layer is an older Impression Obsession stamp "Friends Heart"
-The "L" playing card and date verse at the bottom are cardstock accessories from a kit by My Mind's Eye "Love Me".
- I used a Tim's clip ring to hang one of his Ideaology Bauble pearls, and a silver love word charm that I had in my stash.
-Printed sheer heart ribbon, and red ruffled ribbon are threaded through the top.
-Silver german foil lace at the bottom.
