Convention wow prototype. This has real sand, real seashells, and microbeads on the tag, dazzling diamonds on the starfish, watercolor crayons, pretties beads on the ribbons, and silver hodgepodge for the small tag. SO far changes will be sponge the edges, make the small tag smaller and sponged.

I am actually looking for constructive feedback on this. I need to tweak it. The shell is up on dimensionals and has dazzling diamonds on it. I am going to reduce the small tag and sponge the edges a bit. Someone suggested that the small tag doesn't go with it, but I need some way to do the writing or initial as it is a water bottle tag. I also am dead-set on doing a compound tag, so help me think here folks!

Hi Vee,
This is a great tag. I think it would look better without the ribbon and beads hanging at the bottom of the tag. I actually like the small tag. I hope this helps.

Love the ribbon and beads. If the small tag is stationary, I think I would turn the A around. If it isn't, it is great the way it is. With the sponging you have mentioned, I don't think I would change anything else.
ETA: Oh, duh! It is late and my eyes are too tired to see that is a V and not an A. Ok, so I think it is perfect....love the silver hodgepodge, too.

I don't know what a compound tag is or a convention wow but this is pretty. I agree w/ the sponging on the edges and also think the "V" tag could be smaller. Hope that helps a little bit. I'm also a little iffy on the beads & ribbon. I think the ribbon would be nice w/o the beads.

Oh my! This is GORGEOUS! Such wonderful details with the real shells and sand, and I love the pearls on the ribbon. It looks like you sponged this in blue(?), and I think it has such a softening, beautiful effect!
