Inspired By:

This week it's the lovely Linda Cain who is showcasing her PaperArtsy styling.
I totally loved the colours on Linda's first tag so set to work making one of my own
I used 'haystack' 'smoked paprika' 'claret' 'hyde park' 'limelight' and 'baltic blue' Fresco's and then I dipped into my basket of 'ink and the dog' stamps and found the 'eclectic 6' plate.
Instead of stars {like on Linda's tag} I used my white pen to highlight some of the image.
And finished with a stamped fragment tied on with string.

 This is also my Anything but a Card entry for their 'Tie It Up' challenge.

I'll be back again soon with more art as I have been rather busy making, and just had no time to photograph!
Till then Stay Inky

Great tag, the "white" details are the perfect way to enhance everything else. Really like the shadowing of colour along the bottom banner. Thanks for joining in the PaperArtsy fun! x

I love how your colours glow on this tag! The white pen makes such a difference too although I would have loved it without too! Wonderful tag and that image is fab.
