Hello all, I am posting bit late for my usual time. I usually don't blog on weekends. I went for a hike with my husband, and it took us 2 hours from the start to finish. I was huffing and puffing like anything ;) I haven't hiked in months, and this was a new trail for me. We moved to this new house in April, and have a really a big mountain for hike, but finally made it today, will leave some picture at the end of my post.
Once I got back home from the hike, needed some cooling off time, made this tag during that time.
I had recycled a commercial tag. I think it came with one of the suitcases, we purchased few months back, and I didn't trash it, thinking that I might use for it.
I started with first getting the print off, then used DI - smoky sky, and tumbled glass to ink it up. I used Heid Swapp's mixed media script stamp to stamp using broken china distress ink, I stamped some snowflakes in white pigment ink from Lawn fawn. The I stamped the bauble from Kaisercraft, in red and heat embossed it with clear powder, very difficult to see in the picture.
Then I stamped some stars and heat embossed in gold. Used a ribbon and a gold string to finish off. I am pretty bad at tags, or should I say I never do tags. Either case I am bad.

Now a card, this simple card was made 2 days back. It is a one layer card. I used kraft for this, and white pigment ink from lawn fawn. The stamps are from AltNew - Lacy scrolls. The sentiment is from clearly besotted. A few rhine stones to finish off.

Entrance of the temple, it is a very long and beautiful temple.
From the highest point, view of the beach and sea.
Circling around the trail, hubby decided to give a pose
It is the Henquin river/sea separating Macau where we live, and China.
Thank you for stopping by, I really appreciate your kind feedback :) Have a great day!
