A FUN Tag for the eclectic Paperie's Art Doll Get Altered Challenge!

It was LOVE at first sight:
Crafty Individuals Imagine Child.

So I decided to make a tag by gluing some paper I made with my Gelli plate to a tag and then adding left over pink embossing paste with a Prima stencil.  (I mixed pink paint with the embossing paste to get the color I wanted.)

Here it is:

I stamped my Imagine Child on deli paper so I could get a crisp image and then I cut it out and mod podged the image to the tag.  The colors of the gelli paper eliminated the need to add color to anything except her cheek and the flower.  I also used my TCW Confetti Stencil with Wendy Vecchi's white embossing paste and black embossing paste. I used white with the dashes to frame the tag and black with the hearts and lines to frame that sweet doll.

Here's a close up of the pink Prima Gerbera Daisy and seam binding tied with twine.

Here is a close up of the black embossing paste framing that sweet face!  You can also see the white embossing past lines better in this photo.
I hope you like it!

Just for kicks, here are a bunch of different papers made with my Gelli plate.  You will be seeing them on other projects!

I am adding this to the eclectic Paperie's Art Doll Challenge because I think she is just a Doll!
There's a PRIZE!  Come Play with us!

She is a doll! I love her angelic face with the gorgeous background colours peeking through so softly. The embossed stencilling looks amazing and adds wonderful texture. Love how the tag topper pulls the colours out from the tag. Really beautiful.
