Allsorts Challenge - Tags and labels

Here is my entry for this week's Allsorts challenge where Mummylade has asked us to include a tag or label on our creations. Now I regularly make tags, so thought I'd better include it on something and came up with this card. The flourish stamp is a Debbie Moore one I've had for a while and not used, the text and the daisy are from Crafty Individuals. I used my ribbon tag shapeablities for the tag at the bottom. I have seen lots of people using this colour combo and rather liked it. The colours on all of it are bundled sage and Victorian velvet distress inks. Thanks for looking!
Before I go I'll just share a little gem with you. I was talking about horse drawn vehicles in class and one little darling asked how the horse did that - did it hold the pencil in it's mouth!!!

Oh Wow, I love this Sally. Fabulous colours and my current favourites which is a good job as I think it's the colours my daughter is going with for her wedding which we hope will be next May.

Love the stamps you have used on here.

This is gorgeous, Sal. I love how you've made the tag into a card and that CI stamp is one of my favourites.
The flourishes are lovely, they fit so well with the tag. Beautiful colour scheme as always too.
Hope your week is going well.
