This is another tag from the Perfect Pearl Mist Tag-A-Pa-Looza... I went a little nutty that day and there are MORE tags to come.
This tag is all Perfect Pearl Mist, Distress Inks, Tim stamps, rub-ons and Tissue Tape…in 50 shades of brown.

To make the bow: Begin with two lengths of Tissue Tape about 12 inches each. Stick them back-to-back to each other. This isn't easy to do but go slowly; be sure to avoid wrinkles and keep them aligned. You could probably use a single piece of tape and apply talcum powder to the back to keep it from sticking to itself. This would give you a looser, more flexible..ribbon-like bow but for this I preferred the stiffer, shaped bow.


The tag itself was inked with Old Paper Distress Ink, sprayed with Cappuccino Perfect Pearls Mist, and stamped with a variety of stamps using Aged Walnut Distress Ink. After the ink dried I added brown Basic Grey rub-ons and more Prima crystals. I always cut the rub-ons apart and reconfigure them to my liking. The bottom was simply highlighted with a strip of the same Tissue Tape that the bow was made out of (and it too is brown). Finally, I aged an Idea-ology Ornate Plate with various colors of alcohol ink, stamped the sentiment using black archival ink onto the tag and placed the Ornate Plate over top. I used the included brads to hold the plate ink place and then covered them with small Prima crystals.
