Sunday Stamper - Diamonds and Pearls.

I thought I had better make this today as I have a manic week ahead! I rather think I have over done the bling, but never mind I had fun making my amateur tag, which perhaps reflects my aspirations to be a lady?
sunday stamper - Diamonds and Pearls
I painted the tag with silver acrylic dabber and then stamped two different diamond background stamps over. Then I vagabonded (what a lovely word) the diamond embossing folder and inked the edges with black soot distress ink. The lady I believe was Elusive images, sorry if I'm wrong, it's an old stamp and before I started blogging I just filed them without the makers name. I glammed her up with a pearl chocker and necklace, pearl earring, and a diamond and pearl tiara, then added the red feathers and diamonds to top her off! The crown is part of a Prima edging, the ribbon on the bottom was inked with red colour wash. The sentiment is one of Tim's and the fan is an old stamp coloured with my promarkers.
What a lovely day it's been! Went for a bracing walk this morning and blew the cobwebs away, then had a play - perfick! Hope you all had a good one. xx
