Dare to be Sassy Thursday #326 - Tag your it!

Today I'd like to share with you my creation for this weeks Dare to be Sassy Thursday Challenge over at Sassy Studio Designs. I'm having so much fun as Guest Designer, I will be very sad when my time to leave comes, but until then I get to play with gorgeous images like the one in today's project.

The Dare to be Sassy Thursday Challenge theme this week is 'Tag Your It' - we simply want you to create a tag.

Here's my tag;

I used the wonderfully quirky 'Buttercream Babe - Mad Hatter' image from Sassy Studio Designs.  As the image is quite quirky I wanted my tag design to be pretty quirky too; when I started my project I had no idea how it was going to look, I only knew that I wanted to focus on the top part of the image.  

I coloured my image with Letraset Tria and Promarkers then cut it down to fit nicely on a tag.  I was going to add the teapot on a separate smaller tag, so fussy cut that out.  Whilst playing with the layout I popped the teapot on top of the Mad Hatters' Hat and knew that was where it belonged.

My tag measures approximately 8 inches by 3 1/2 inches. I used White Card stock for my tag base to which I added a layer of black paper.  Before sticking these together I punched the holes in both layers, as you can see my punched holes are off centre, another happy accident!  I stuck my cardstock and backing paper together then added my image, along with some scrap piece of white paper to break up the large area of black at the top of the card.  I then added my crazy teapot along with Alphabet Stickers for my sentiment.

To embellish my tag I added some doodles frames along with a selection of fun ribbons.

I love that crazy teapot and hat combination.

That's all from me for today, If you've read this far Thank you so much, I really appreciate all my visitors.  Don't forget to hop over to the Sassy Studio Designs Blog to check out the gorgeous tags created by the rest of the Design Team.  I hope you'll have time to join in our challenge.

Bye for now
