Spring Time In Paris Tag ....

Hello everyone, well the sun has finally made an appearance up here so time to dig out some colours to reflect the mood.


This week at Simon Says Stamp the theme is "Backgrounds" ..... I've used my fav Tim Holtz stamps to create this "Springtime In Paris" tag. Stamps used Papillon, Mixed Media & Paris Memoir.



Along with Distress Paints - Mustard Seed, Picked Raspberry, Mowed Lawn & Salty Ocean, combined with some Dylusions Sprays - Whiten Linen, Calypso Teal & Black Marble.


Not to mention the gorgeous Remant Rub Ons ... oh la la love them. Hope you all have a great weekend and the sun continues to make an appearance.

Until next time ..... stay inky! x
