Green isn't may favourite colour, I have to say. I wasn't even thinking of entering the challenge. In fact, I was trying to overcome crafter's block that had set in while trying to produce my mum-in-law's Mother's Day card. When I was making my tag for Tim's 12 tags, I'd accidentally printed out too many sheets of the background paper (from Sheena Douglass's Paint Fusion CD), and was trying to base the card on the papers I had left over (waste not, want not). I eventually abandoned that idea, but used some of the paper to cover a tag I'd made a mess of for another chllenge (Tag- You're It!) - so this is green in more ways than one!
What else? Well, I stamped the fern frame around the edge of the tag (stamp from Kanban) with some Peeled Paint Distress ink; the roses are from My Paper Stash, the silver mesh was a scrap left over from another projct, and so was the silver bead chain. A scrap of ribbon from my stash and that was it - and I wasn't even trying!

That has worked so well Keren! Hugs, Jenny x
Thanks so much for sharing your beautiful tag with us at Anything But a Card! The rolled flowers are so pretty with the pearls and ribbon! I love that you were able to reuse some of your supplies to make it 'green' as well!
Great tag Keren. I really love what you've done with the background paper too. I love it when you can give something a make over rather than bin it! Thanks for joining us at Anything But A Card this time.
