Tag #28 Diamonds

Friends are like diamonds - priceless.

I used my creative expressions checkers mask and painted the diamonds (well squares at an angel) with white, pool and ice blue acrylic paint. When it was dry the tag was inked with broken china, tumbled glass and stormy sky and gathered twig distress inks,

The corner swirls were cut using a die and then stamped in gathered twig in script before being inked in the colours already used and edged with white paint.The white paint was also used on the main tag by using the edge of an old credit card..

The key hole and the plaque were also inked in the same colours. The plaque was stamped using words from a paperartsy hot picks set.

In the Tim holtz ideaology memo pin the word friendship and its dictionary description are attached. there are a few keys stamped and a small one stuck on.

Through the top there is some string coloured in the broken china and also some necklace chain.
