Feature Friday is Tagalicious!

Happy Friday Everyone, Norma G. here with a little inspiration to kick off the weekend!! That's right its..

Are you ready for the weekend?! I know I am!! Today I have a gorgeous tag to share with you worthy of ANY New Year's celebration.

This bird would look great draped over any bottle you're taking to your New Year's celebrations.

To make this tag, I started out with a #8 size manila tag and stamped it with the beautiful Starburst background stamp from the PWP Backgrounds Cling Stamp Set. I stamped this multiple times with Gesso and Timber Brown Stazon. Next I spritz on some Lemon Zest Dylusions ink and inked it with Tim Holtz Old Paper Distress Ink.

I used the PWP Bird Lyrics Cling Stamp for my focal image. When I saw this beautiful bird with his awesome top hat, he screamed New Year's Celebration to me, lol. I decided to cover his original sentiment of "I'll be your bird" with "Happy New Year's" from the Holiday Greetings Cling Stamp Set.

For visual interest, I used the Cricut Accent Essentials Cartridge to cut out a snowflake. The snowflake was cut at 4" and was dry embossed using the Tim Holtz Patchwork embossing folder. Next I rubbed on some TH Distressed ink in Peeled Paint.

The banner I used was cut with the Cricut Stand & Salute cartridge. It's cut at 1" and inked with TH Peeled Paint. The rose was cut with Spellbinders Blossom One.

I tucked in some glittered miniature snowflakes, Prima bling and used a beautiful sheer gold ribbon. To finish off the composition, I stamped some of the birds from the Bird Melange Cling Stamp Set, and there you have it......Birds ready to ring in the new year!!
