I chose snail to tag for this week's free for all. Linda watercolours most beautifully, and while I share her love of Penny Black stamps I can't colour as wonderfully as she does. I have bought a couple of stamps on the strength of cards Linda has sent me .
I used Sizzix Tags #3 to cut my tag from a scrap of shaving cream card that was on my desk, using a green eyelet and blue ribbon.
The Penny Black image was stamped on watercolour paper with Versafine Black, coloured with distress inks and Stickles added to the hat. I see I forgot to colour in the 2 - I'll have to fix that.

What a cute, cute image! Sounds like you and Linda are a mutual admiration society -- arguing over who watercolors better. I admire both of you because I can't watercolor to save my life!!!

I'm so glad you've tagged Linda. She is such a wonderful crafter and colorer extraordinnaire. I wish everyone could see her talent as you and I do. Your tag is darling, Sabrina.
