Wonder Tag Step by Step

Hello Roadies, Ronda here with a step by step for you.  This "Wonder" tag makes me happy.  The colors are so me along with all the layers.  There is a little bit of everything on this tag, vintage items, old well loved products, and gorgeous new pieces.  Here's a quick look at how I put it together.

1. Emboss tag with embossing folder.
2. Add a thin layer of gesso and then paint with Maya Mists.  Here I used Sunflower Yellow and Buttermilk Cream. 
3. Add bits fo torn text using gel medium or other adhesive
4. Sprinkle background with bits of Maya Mists.  I used Dragon Fruit Pink.
5. Stamp edges with Fontly Yours Maya Road stamp & add ticket strip towards the bottom of the tag. 
6. Cut out butterfly image & cut word from fabric tape. Add both to the upper left of the tag
7. Add bits of beeswax around the edges of the tag
8. Glue vintage thread to the background using gel medium
9. Paint wooden bird with Maya Mists then add paper flowers and seal will coats of beeswax.  I used diluted Turquoise Metallic and then regular Turquoise Metallic for the belly of the bird.
10. Adhere bird to tag using pop up adhesive above the wooden twig
11. Add some gingham point flowers and antique alterable scallop trim. For that little pop of red, add in a small strip of the gingham fabric tap cut at an angle.  
12. Finish the tag by adding some blackberry twine cording in a cute bow at the top.  I also like to knot my cording at the ends.
