For today's MIX challenge, Lydia asked us to make it signed, sealed and delivered. In other words, use a glazing technique. So, I started with the tag and stamped the shells. There is more to this stamp, it goes all the around for a full frame. Next I colored with Copic markers and stamped the sentiment. Then used a little chalk to fill in the rest of the water. For my glazing I used Mod-Podge. It doesn't really show up in the photo, but it adds a nice shine to the shells and water. For trimmings, I have a metal fish charm, a couple of purple wooden beads and some dark brown yarn that has some sparkle in it
Another FUN Mix challenge!!!

Love your copic work and the shading on those shells. The embellishments make this such a neat tag. I also like how you chalked the water but left the white space for that awesome sentiment! What an awesome tag you created!
