Some Quiet Time

I have unhooked the main phone, so many political calls, and decided today was for me. The weather has settled down a bit, still quite cold, only 45..but after 2 days of our 40/50/60 MPH, and rain, we have a calmer forcast and the sun is out. Hipp, Hipp, Hooray.

My tag today  (could be a door hanger) was created by using a dark olive mat board, distressed with TH distressing tool, a scrap of varigated green, remenants of Labels Two, a MS round the corner punch in eggplant, grape or whatever tends to be, a chipboard from my scraps a top. The homemade flower is pages from an "Old Book"  cut with Spellbinders Flower Creations Three. Which also created the felt leaves back of the "Old Felted Wool" pumpkin heart. The doily heart came from Mother's stash (she is cleaning out and gave me a few "Older" things) The memo pin pierceing the adage "Love" ticket are both Tim Holtz. The button is old, the fibers at the bottom have a little metal sentiment "delight" which you can hardly see from the photo. All are from my little treasure chest.



I have entered this into the following challenges:
