Thanks: Mixed Media and Die Cut tag

Hello there!! Today I'm dropping by to quickly share with you my latest fall tag. 

Recently, I've forced myself to significantly reduce my crafting budget for various reasons. I already have so much to work with, it's not that much of a "hardship".

I'm part of a school project called "Adopt-A-Staff" in which we provide small gifts to a teacher/staff member during the school year. I see it as a great opportunity to play with my stash!!

My sister gave me a bag of fall goodies over a year ago and I stuffed them into my "fall" drawer. Whelp, I pulled out that bag, did some fussy cutting and had quite a few die cuts to layer!!

All that was left was the background!! I really wanted it to be colorful but simple and somewhat masculine. I mixed Lindy's squirt Maple Syrup Bronze and magical Autumn Maple Crimson with modeling paste. Layered those colors using my Prima tapestry stencil (awesome stencil, by the way). Then I added Moon Shadow Mist Golden Doubloon very lightly. Did a little stamping with some text, and voila!

THANKS FOR STOPPING BY TODAY!!!
