Tag Tuesday - Roaring Twenties

Oh dear, I am a bit behind ... but only by a couple of days (lol). Last week's challenge at Tag Tuesday was: Roaring Twenties. I love this time with its twists, novelties, the glamour, the daring styles .... 
My tag started life as paint left-over in very pale pink and nougat
 
 I cut a tag and covered it with crunched tissue paper. The crinkles were slightly inked with Victorian Velvet distress ink and stamped on it with Archival Coffee ink (all stamps from Artistic Outpost, lend by Lucy - thank you so much!)
 Once the base was created I embellished the tag with lace, pearls, ribbon, paper flower, pins and everything a sophisticated and stylish Lady would naturally need (lol)
Have a lovely evening, Petra.
