Tag Tuesday Challenge- Christmas Leftovers!

Louise's Challenge this week is to use something left over from your Holiday celebration. I used scraps of some tissue paper that came in a present. Whimsy is a store here in Park City. T
heir name and the fleur de lis are on the tissue paper - I had kept it thinking I would use it in a collage. The background is stamped and distressed and the tissue paper is ripped and glued randomly. The square face is stamped on a piece of wood chipboard, colored the eyes and lips and covered with beeswax. I dripped blue crayon on the sides and melted them further to blend it in.There is a square of tea stained lace under the face.  The clothespin has a piece of ripped cardboard under it with paint and dripped crayon on it. 2 orange round rhinestones and a punched fleur de lis complete the tag!

  5. So much I like about this. The tissue paper is very cool, as is the clothespin. (If you had fun with this one, I think you'll like the tag I'm working on for next week.)
