Hello, time for the first Tag You're It! challenge in 2016. Inspiration for challenge #38 at Tag You're It! is this sweet tag by Tracey! What immediately caught my eye on Tracey's tag was the water colored background and the pops of color from the balloon and daisy's.
I love cute critter stamps and decided to use my never used before Waffle Flower set for my tag. I added glossy accents to the bananas and monkeys eyes and some Wink of Stella to the flower. I also embossed the sentiment to help it stand out.
I have had the same heat gun for over 15 years, my husband gave me a new one for Christmas and it is amazing how much better it works. I also used one of my new Holbein tube watercolors for the background. With the use of these new to me items my tag is also eligible for the current Simon Says Stamp Wednesday Challenge: Something New.
Thanks for stopping by, I hope your inspired to join the Tag You're It! challenge.

- Holbein watercolor paints
- Copic Markers
- Tag Die from Papertrey Ink
- stamps "Willy and Friends" Waffle Flower
