Joined Roses tag - A Colorful Life Designs

 March was the worst month of my life, and I dropped the ball on posting my March stencil projects from the new release at A Colorful Life Designs.  I'm really struggling with the depth of this grief, but I'm trying to keep myself going by doing the things that bring me joy. It's not easy, though. I often feel like curling up in a ball in bed and just sobbing my heart out, but I know that won't help. So here I am, crafting and posting as if the world is the same. As if I didn't lose a grandbaby 3 weeks ago. Sigh.  It's just not fair.

Anyway, I'd like to enter this tag into the following challenges:

SSS Monday - Tag It

Daisy Chain Challenge - Not Square

Pammie's Inky Pinkies - Anything Goes

A Place to Start - AG/Optional Black, White, and Red

Crafty Calendar - Feminine



I found this tag in my stash, so I covered it with red & black alcohol inks, then applied the Joined Roses Stencil (use code JennFan10 for 10% off your entire purchase at the shop) through it with texture paste. I let that dry and then used a paint brush to color the paste silver with Mica Spray Stain.  I added a little text sticker and tied some pretty ribbons through the tag. Peace.
