the focal point for the tag is a stamped image (Prima Marketing) of a wonderful girl or even young lady adorned with beautiful flowers
The image is stamped with Archival ink on patterend paper from ScrapCake and coloured with various distress inks. I used a Crafty Individual text stamp for the background and distressed the edges of the paper with ink as well. The patterened paper is layered on corrugated card from some old packaging - I removed one of the paper layers to expose the rough texture underneath and dabbed it with distress stains.
As embellishments I chose some crochet lace, a paper flower from Prima Marketing, a little stamped label (Sizzix Tim Holtz Alterations and Lili of the Valley stamps) and some pearls.

Gorgeous tag Petra and well done on having a clear out! xx
This is so pretty, Petra! The recycled base of the tag looks great - I love the look of corrugated cardboard.
Just beautiful, Petra! Love the rough cardboard contrasting with that delicate image.
This is beautiful! I love how you exposed the core of the cardboard on the tag; great idea.
This is gorgeous; what a cute little girl! Look forward to seeing your newly decorated rooms (we are having a bit of work done too, lol!),

Oh do I hear you about being tidy and making crafting so much more enjoyable! Do you know there are things I just can't find, but never seem to be able to just clean it up completely! I get mostly done and then another project needs doing! Love this little sweet young lady and the pink and cardboard give such a great shabby chic feel!
