This looks like a vintage, leather luggage tag! I love it!
ReplyDeleteI love the look of old leather...and I love the wonderful cluster of vintage goodies on the side. The sweet little stamped sentiments, the vintage photo corners, the perfect touch of twine...this is just fabulous. I am such a huge fan of your gorgeous, thoughtful creations!
ReplyDeleteI love the vintage look to this tag! Your grandsons are adorable.

ReplyDeleteKaren, your tag is one of my favorites this challenge. I seldom use a "vintage patina" on my projects, but your tag is magnificent! (If I could make paper look that good, it would be all over my creations.) What did you use the pen on...darkening the corners? This really looks like it's one hundred years old. I can't begin to sort out whats original to the piece, and what you've added. I'm Pinning this because the embellishment is one of the best "male" ones I've ever seen. All this beauty, and still your two grandsons are the stars of the show. Thanks so much for choosing to share.
ReplyDeleteHi Marcie, Thanks so much! I started with a white postcard that I altered with some Tim Holtz Vintage Photo Distress Ink. After that dryed I used the TN2 pen and ran that over the entire card to give it a lighter color and I love how it turned out
ReplyDeleteEveryone else has said it all! I love the look of a vintage luggage tag. It looks like real leather! Well done girl!
