Tag Tuesday - Postcard Cutout

We had another great turn out last week, and I'm glad people are enjoying the challenge. There are all different styles and colors - one person even made a small Tag Book and we  have some new players!

Today we will try something a little bit different!

Today's challenge is to cut up a postcard in some way. You can make your tag out of the postcard (as I did), or cut up images on the postcard and use on your tag. If you are using a modern day postcard, the image will probably have a slick surface, so think about embellishments if you can't draw on it. Or put two postcards together; just be sure and use a real postcard, not an image of a postcard. Try something new!

I chose a postcard someone had sent me picturing the Humphrey's Art Hall at Ohio Wesleyan College.  I traced a tag shape on my postcard, cut it out and added some Tim Holtz vintage image tape on the left side and sticky ribbon across the top. I then cut out the door to the Art Hall and glued a colorful image in the opening, added a metal H, an arrow, brads and a tiny crown. It's finished off with a word cut out. Simple but still fun!

Please try to visit on the others who have signed up, and view and comment on their creations. We all love to have comments on something we put effort into!

HAVE FUN!
