Swan Song

I have had a busy day today. I started this card this morning and finished it tonight. I have created it for 4 challenges.

Play Date Cafe #64-light blue, light brown, grey
Midnight Madness Sketch #86
Saturday Challenge #117-With Love
Stamp Something-Anything Goes

The stamp that I used is Verve. I stamped it on the tag and on white paper, cut it out and added it to the tag. I added clear glitter to it. The saying is My Sentiments Exactly. The flower punch under the saying is EK Success. The background paper is Sassafras Lass and the tag is Basic Grey. I stitched the side of the tag with embroidery floss. I added sheer ribbon and bling. Thanks for stopping by!
