I made two tags for this challenge mainly because I was keen on the dark tags colours and I planned to emphasise the light coloured because thats the one I prefer. That was till I got a little reminder that my link on the challenge blog was to Stampers Anonymous and not to Ranger. Lucky for me the Dark tag I used Ranger Distress Crayons set 7. Ok I wasn't keen on the colours even when I smothered it with water and tried blottering some of it off but it does work well with the dark version of my tag.

I also had wee accident with the Perspective butterfly when I was rolling it with pen, maybe the Ranger Watercolour Card (ooh look something else thats Ranger forgot this too)  was still a bit wet. I'm not telling what happened, I'll let you find it!

So now with the tag, I made my own and decided to use Simon Says Stamp Leaves Background stamp and I used two Simon Says Stamp Inkpad Willow for the darker one and Jellybean for the light tag.

I used the same inkpads with a Inkylicious Ink Dusters to make the lighter colour behind the leaves.


To give more interest to the tags I used the Tim Holtz Alterations Wildflowers in white and black, I also add some black ink round the dark tag to make it more grungy.

I used the same Butterfly stamp as the dark one but I used Versamark with WOW white embossing powder and blended with some colour with a blending tool to get into the small spaces. I used Simon Says Stamps Mini Hybrid Ink cubes.


I still prefer my light colour tag.


Do you use Instagram ?  If so please add  #ssswchallenge to your challenge entry uploads so we can see them on there too.
