Grungy Monday #6

Nothing like waiting until Sunday to finish this one. I started it twice and didn't like the colors I chose for the Weathered Wood technique, so started over and had to let dry, etc. Add water tp paint dabbers, stir, shake, etc. I really must do this every couple of weeks to keep them good so it's not such a hastle to use them every time. I do love them though! I used tim's new sewing set of stamps finally for my tag. Kept it pretty simple! Used watermelon dabber, aged mahogony ink, and coffee archival ink. Colored the ric-rac with the mahogony ink as well and tied on some tulle.
