So, out with the quotes book that hubby bought me and found the quote that I have used here! Once I'd found the quote the main image choice - an Inkylicious stamp - was easy. I added some parts of stamps from Paper Artsy Lynne Perella set LPC004 and mini MN30 as well as parts of the Papermania travel stamps. The base tag was made by adding Frayed Burlap and Stormy Sky distress inks to my mat and running the tag through after spritzing the ink with water. The words were computer generated then rubbed around the edge with the distress ink, as was the edge of the tag.
I am linking this to the challenge here
Thanks for looking, Chris

Wonderful quote, fabulous tag.

I believe this was the perfect color choice to accentuate this tag and quote. Nicely done, and very vintage in a strong way.
Love your tag and the way you have placed your stamps.

A beautiful tag and quote. The colours and stamps used create a very atmospheric piece.
Hi Chris.........I'm sure I've just commented...so apologies if this comes through twice!!! LOVE ♥ your Tag and your Lady is gorgeous..xxx
Gorgeous vintage tag! Did you sacrifice part of a sweater to create that flower?
Really gorgeous tag!
I have used part of a favourite old top-it was on it's way to the charity shop and I couldn't bear to part with it! Some of it lined a little bag I made too and there's still some left! Chrisx
I am a fan of recycling clothes for crafting purposes and routinely use bits of shirts, but I never thought of using knitwear! It's a great idea, cheap, green and original...
Beautiful, beautiful tag, Chris... the look on her face is the perfect expression of the wonderful words, and I love the subtle vintage colour palette, and delicate embellishing - brilliant!
