Enjoy The Journey

Good morning and happy Monday. It's my turn to share my second piece for the Country View Crafts 'Trains, Planes, and Automobiles' challenge. This time I've made a tag 


 Now this was very hard for me because it meant cutting up one of my precious sheets of Graphic 45 paper, but it just fitted the bill too nicely not to use it. I started with a black Ranger Giant Tag and trimmed my paper to fit.
 Then I stamped some of my favourite Artistic Outpost, Tim Holtz, and TPC stamps and cut out, along with other bits from the G45 sheet.
The hardest part was arranging them all so that they didn't cover up all the lovely backing paper, and this is how it ended up - although I'm not much of a vintage gal (I know until I look in a mirror) I do like this.
I'm entering my tag into the Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge which is 'pop it up' and the 
Craft Stamper TIMI September 'anything goes' challenge 
There's still lots of time for you to join in with our challenge, so I hope you do.
Have a fun day, and thanks very much for looking x

    I feel your pain… cutting up a sheet of Graphic 45! Well worth it for that Vintage look though, it's a great tag Sue.

    I think you've hit the vintage nail right on the head with this fabulous travel collage - brilliant use of your much-loved paper for the background, and clever composition of all those great images and ephemera.
