A project with wings

I am just so busy with work, trying to finish assignments for my DSBM course, and ferrying children around that I haven't so much as touched my scrappy supplies for two weeks.  I tell myself that the worst of it will be over when I submit on 13 October, and half term follows quite soon after that.  I am quite determined to resist the temptation to embark on another course immediately after completing this one - I don't really need it, and that's about 320 hours more available for scrapping - a no brainer as far as I'm concerned!  Today I had hoped to be attending a workshop with 3 Jolly Scrappers - they have Michelle Mogford in, and the sneak peeks look great.  I have done a class with her before, and she works in such a different way to me that I found it very interesting.  Still, Jo and Kim have said they will keep a class kit back for me, so when I do get some time to scrap again, I will have something enticing to look forward to!

In the meantime, the favourite of the tags I have made recently - Bo Bunny et cetera (nice line but I find it easier in small doses).  I dug out some grungeboard and inked it with fired brick distress ink - but deliberately not too well - and then clear embossed it.  This added a little bit of "lift" to the wings, so that was an unforseen benefit.  I finished it off with another Tim Holtz product, two tickets which rather appropriately says "soar".

Enjoy!
