Crafty Boots Challenge this time is Babies. It is a very poignant challenge.
Babies are such a gift. I made this tag with friends in mind who have just had their beloved son after many years of waiting.
I cut a tag and a page of a childrens encyclopedia found in a charity shop. I struggle cutting up books but this ones cover was mouldy so fair game.I used my favourite Tim Holtz flourish stamp and a wooden satmp of a cradle I picked up in a sale bin.The distress inls I used were broken china and vintage photo. The flowers were light pink so I inked them to a light brown. The metal plate was finished off with brads and the New Baby stamp.
Hi Bev I love this gorgeous tag , such amazing detail.

Well, the struggle to cut up that book, even if it was moldy, allowed you make a really sweet tag. I love the images you used. Very sweet.
