Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge: Sparkle and Shine Tag using Simon Says Stamp's Tag Adornments Die and Vicki Boutin's Warm Wishes Patterned Paper

This week's Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge theme is Sparkle and Shine.  I made a tag featuring stars in the background and a "Sparkle" sentiment, courtesy of Vicki Boutin's Warm Wishes patterned paper.

I actually used two different patterned paper packs for this tag.  In addition to Vicki Boutin's Warm Wishes, I also used Simple Stories' Life in Bloom paper.  Vicki Boutin's is the star pattern on top and the diagonal stripes are from Simple Stories.  I stuck them together and cut out the tag shape using Simon's Tag Adornments die.

I added some white paint around the edges, which I colored with pink, green and turquoise.  Then I cut a floral arch from the same Simple Stories paper.  I used one of Tim Holtz's paper dolls and made a crown for this adorable girl.

I put the whole thing together and cut out the "Sparkle" word from another one of the Vicki Boutin pages.  I looped a piece of yellow yarn through the top of the tag and this girl was all ready to sparkle and shine!
