Tim Holtz (Idea-ology) came out with a new product this year called Baseboard Dolls and I received some of them to use on projects for the Creativation booth. The little girl on this tag was a Baseboard Doll that I converted to a regular one by peeling her off the substrate.
She sports one of Tim's new Transparent Wings and I used a flower from the previous version of Botanical Layers that also comes on sturdy paper which I peeled off to make more suitable for collage.
The background was part of the instructions from a needlework pattern that I tinted with Distress Ink.
I dabbed on a very small amount of alcohol ink to tint the wings (originally clear) with a combo of Butterscotch and Watermelon and some hand-sanitizer to help dilute it and spread it around.
They were attached with a drop of epoxy in the center of the girl's back and the remainder of the wing surface moves freely.

For the first time, I also used a product call Nuvo Crystal Drops (Olive Branch) to make dots along the tag border. Some of you probably know how much I like to use Scribbles (a 3D fabric paint) or Liquid Pearls to create a similar effect but that paint is opaque and this product is transparent, behaves like a tinted version of Glossy Accents, and I like it a lot!
I'm linking up to Simon's Monday Challenge Blog--this week's theme is Love is in the Air.
