Eiffel Tower Tag

Here's a tag that I made for Brandi's Stampin' Up Tag Challenge over at Sketches4All.  


It's been a long time since I've actually used rubber stamps.  I've been in such a digital stamp mode for the last couple of years and I could have used digital stamps for this challenge, but I wanted to do something different.

The Eiffel Tower stamp is by Crafter's Companion and the little Create stamp is from an unknown manufacturer.  I've had it for years and bought it at a sale at one of the LSS's for practically nothing.  {This is the very first time I have used my Crafter's Companion stamp!  I just unwrapped it to make this tag.}

I stamped both of them out on tan cardstock, using black Memento ink.  The cardstock is a scrap of Graphic 45.


Isn't this beading cool?  It's actually the back of some silver beading from Webster's Pages.  I intended to use the silver side and while I was playing with it, it flipped over, and the back was so unusual that I decided to use it upside down.  The clock "block" is by Prima.


Here's another picture of the "back side" of the beading.

I'm also entering my tag in the following challenges:

Crafter's Cafe:  Anything Goes ~ Eureka Stamps is a sponsor
Through The Craft Room Door:  Anything Goes ~ Eureka Stamps is a sponsor
Simply Create, Too:  Anything Goes
Challenges 4 Everybody:  Anything Goes
Scrappy Frogs Challenge Blog:  Something New - Used Eiffel Tower stamp for the first time and used some beading on the reverse side.

Thanks for stopping by today.
