Kind of amazing tag

Monday means it's time for a new challenge at the Simon Says Stamp Monday challenge blog.
And guess what.
I get to be a guest designer with them all month long!

This week's challenge is "Something New" and we're using a Simon Exclusive product.



I used the new-to-me Simon stamp set Kind Flowers to make this tag. After I stamped it, I colored it in with a waterbrush and Distress Crayons in a new color scheme for me. I almost always use warm colors so I made myself use the cool colors blue, green, and purple. I inked up the edges with Vintage Photo distress ink and sprinkled water on the tag. I finised it up some blue crinkled ribbon.

Come play along in the "Something New" challenge for your chance to win a $50 voucher to spend at SimonSaysStamp.com.
