The weather is gorgeous here in New York state. I am wearing my sun dress and flip flops all around! Hoping this stays but I am a bit afraid of how hot our summer is going to be. I am not a fan of heat and humidity. Just sunshine with cool breezes.
Today I would like to share a accordian tag. I struggled over the weekend to create. I sat down and stared and fiddled around a bit but not much of profit came to be. Thankfully, that is over. So, I distressed my tags with three shades of DI and then stamped with various stamps creating my own background. I used several lonely stamp sets that I love but have neglected. The Girls Paperie and Glitz Designs are the majority of the stamps. I did a lot of layering, stamping, spraying and inking. I added some lace and ribbon as well.
Thank you for looking and enjoy the sunshine if you have it!

Very beautiful! I just love all the wonderful elements!
Oh Wow, what can I say. Your tag is stunning. I love the colours and the accordian idea too. Wonderful work and worth the effort. Hugs Rita xx
GORGEOUS! I’m glad you get to enjoy the sunshine! It’s been peeking it’s head out over here in Idaho too…beautiful but deceptively cold. It’s still around 55 degrees…can’t wait for the sundresses and flippy floopies!
Beautiful accordian booklet which is a feast for the eyes.
Paris in the rain, I would happily be there! Or New York which I visited once, adored the place.
The sun is shining here but there is no actual heat, still a nip in the Scottish air.

Your triple tag is wonderful! I love the colors you’ve used! Each one has such a lovely and different background! I really love each one…how you’ve embellished them! Thanks for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
This is gorgeous Kate. Though I must say it was nice weather when we were in Paris!! How do you get to do all these projects with little ones? I have enough trouble with a one-eyed dog and 6 hens and a cockeral. Oh yes – and a full time job!! Maybe I should give that up but then I need the money to pay for my habit – crafting!!
I love this
STUNNING… plain and simple words for a totally amazingly gorgeous tag triptych… love it loads… and loads! Thank you for joining in with the Sunday Stamper x
