This is the gorgeous tag done by the owner of Altered Pages, our very own Jean Moore.  Isn't it fantastic?  Here is how she created this beautiful work of art....I created a tag from AP Back Bay Postcard tags.  First I used Duo adhesive and copper foil to create a random background.Then I fancy cut images from several collages, adding gentle foiling as well. I then adhered them allowing the leaves to curl upward for 3D effect. ...I then typed the words in a deep brown and tore them from the paper. I swept them with the Blottter ink pad. I added a die cut chipboard flourish which I finger painted with green patina and added some gold with my fingers. I tied the greens with burgundy embroidery floss for another 3D effect. I hope you like it!
 
We love it Jean!  Be sure to leave a comment and tell Jean what you think of the tag she has shared with all of us, too.

 Handy Tip for Artists, Recyclers and Neat Freaks! I have a follow-up to the Citra-Sol method for creating fabulous background pages and collages.   I bought a big bag of navel oranges and realized I had the ingredients to make my own solvent!   Simply take a clean glass jar, peel the rind from the oranges and place all the rind/peels, without the pulp (tangerines, oranges, navels) into the jar.   Pour enough vinegar over the peels to cover them.    Allow the jar to sit for a week or two and VOILA!     You have made your own solvent for literally pennies.    You will notice the liquid getting a bit thicker than the plain vinegar and it does not smell bad!!! I now have a  HUGE jar on the window sill!       Be careful and only use this after testing on a safe spot.
