TSC was to follow a layout and was presented by Pat Smethers. I had fun with this even though it took me two tries. Took a few liberties (some Sistahs may call it being a cheetah) but I call it being creative. Used a stack of DP from Hobby Lobby. Image is a Stampabilities stamp. Inked the "tag" portion with Distress Ink. The decrative edging was done with a MS punch and I laced it with some twine I found at Big Lots. The pearls are also a find at Big Lots. Didn't have any lace but I did run across some paper doilies so distressed one and added it. The whole thing is a bit muted but I think I know someone who LOVES blue who will enjoy seeing this. Which, by the way, we haven't heard much from on the TSC!

Ahhhhh, the "softer" side of our Tater Tot!!
Awesome blending of the distressing brown with the blue! Sweet image on your tag - The lacey doily was a cool touch - super idea for that "arrangement" of pearls - needed some inspiration on how to use that and you provided!! Awesome card for Pat's challenge!!

Whut? No pink? Tater! Lol- you know, I saw this early this morning and fav'd it before I went to work. Sista, this here is right purdy! Yep! I love every inch. Your dress form and doily are so gorgeous on this tag. The pearls are delish, and I am lovin' how you punched the edge in the corner. Gawgus!
