I used to be really into playing along with Tim Holtz's monthly tag challenges but then I started gathering all of these tags that I didn't quite know what to do with. Tags are really a great base to work with though so I pulled some out and went to work for the challenge.
I embossed Rubber Dance's hotel receipt stamp on the background of black tags and then layered on paper scraps, die-cut dictionary pages and some lace border that had been in my drawer for a long time. The butterflies were cut from inked up cardstock and then I reached into my ol' drawer full of ribbon again for the ties.
As luck would have it, one of my art trading groups has this exact same challenge so I know what to do with these tags. :)
Beautiful tags, Julie! I really like the look of the white on black - I ought to do that more often! :) Love the bright colours on the butterflies - a very nice contrast to the rest. Thank you for joining our August challenge at Rubber Dance and for using my hotel receipt stamp! ♥

These are gorgeous Julie. I would usually jump straight on the blue but the orange is so striking against the black I think that one might be my favourite. Love the white on black as well. Thanks for joining the Rubber Dance challenge. Hugz
