Tag, You're It #63 with Karin Akesdotter

Today begins a new challenge over at Tag, You're It!  I've been a long time admirer of our Featured Artist, Karin Akesdotter.  She created a charming little tag to start the New Year off right:

I love that little owl with the night background framed by the clean white tag and details.  I followed along with the same tag shape, but changed the direction of the branch and bow details.  Here's my take:
I stamped,Copic colored, and fussy cut the LOTV image called Spring Swing.  The swing rope was replaced with real floss "rope" tied to the tree and glued to the swing seat.  Little bows hide the glue.  The front tag was popped up with fun foam and the base tag was ink blended with Tumbled Glass DI.
I hope you will play along with us over at Tag, You're It!  Please stop by to see the wonderful interpretations my teammates have created.

Supplies:
Stamp:  Lili of the Valley - Spring Swing
Dies:  MFT Tag Blueprints #4
Inks:  DI Tumbled Glass
Copics:  E30s, 40s, YG 10s, Cs
Other:  Fun Foam, Floss - Hobby Lobby

Thanks for coming over to visit.  I hope you are having a great day!
