Simon Says Stamp and Show Me...

...a TAG!

For other details, to see other wonderful creations, AND to enter your own, check out the Simon Says Stamp and Show Blog!

I decided to go with one of her favorite themes for this tag.... travel!  So, I started with stamps from Air Travel, Ticket to Art, and Destination Art, the new Mover and Shapers Word Die Journey, and white and clear Shrink Plastic to add some charming details to the tag! (Get it, CHARMING details....charms, shrink plastic, oh, never mind).  By the way, this is one of those JUMBO tags, not the regular #8 size, just a little FYI.


I'm not sure what made me add the stars, but some are painted with Gold Paint Dabber, and some are covered with tissue tape.  I thought they added a little interest. There I go with the "interest" thing again...
Oh, and I thought the car straight across the bottom looked rather dull, so I put an angle to it, made it look like it's doing a wheelie. tee hee.
AND, the rosette is made from the license plate paper from the Lost and Found stack, in keeping with the "car, travel theme". lol.

This is charming (lol), I like your sense of humor! This tag is marvelous, I like the added interest of making the car move up a little (like hitting the road) and the starts do add a great visual touch!
