Canadian Tag
EH?
What if Tim Holtz was a Canadian? His patriotic tag may look something like this... only better. I wanted to make a tag with a few Canadian goodies to go with Scrappy Moms Stamps new stamp set, Proudly Canadian.
Couldn't make something crafty and not include a Moose.
The moose is painted with the Espresso acrylic dauber paint and sanded down for a distressed look. Have you ever seen a Moose...BIG!
Using SMS set Proudly Canadian I stamped this sentiment on a SU tag punch. The Proudly Canadian set also comes with this adorable Canadian Maple Leaf stamp that I stamped in red. I picked up the charms at Walmart.
Using my TH Word Play Big Die I cut out the EH using grunge board. With the Black Soot dauber I painted the letter, sanded the edges, then I added Rock Candy for a crackled look.
Look how adorable these Walmart charms are. Perfect for this Moose's neck.
I just picked up Autumn Gatherings strip die. Cutting in 4 colours I layered the leaves and coated the red maple leaf in Glossy Accents.

Great tag, especially the moose. My classroom is decorated with them.

Love your CDN tag! What a great idea. It's odd how we rarely think to paper craft with our icons and how difficult they can be to find in the first place. Thanks for sharing! :)
