Merry & Bright Tag

July has come and is almost gone and I've managed to get my July Tim Tag done.  This month's tag features the Water Colour Resist and Layered Words Techniques. For July's tag I thought it would be fun to make it into a Christmas tag. Let's be honest, it's never too early to create something Christmasy.

To add some interest to the bottom of my tag, I added a strip of the silver deco sheets just underneath the "& Bright". Once strip was adhered, I added three mirrored stars to the bottom right hand corner.

For the top of the tag, I added a red bow. Once I made the bow the way I liked it, I used a piece of twine to tie the peace typed token to the middle of the bow.

Here's what my tag looks like finished with all the extra elements.
