Happy 18th Birthday Tag

Hi Everyone! 

Paper Crafting Journey have a new challenge on, easiest one ever - Anything Goes! Digital Delights are the sponsors this fortnight so make sure to join in if you get a chance.

I have created a tag which looks so much better in real life as the white and black cardstock are sparkly and it was getting dark while taking the photo (and the glue hadn't dried but had to leave for the party so no time to re-photograph before giving to the recipient). I used a Hannah Lynn image from Crafts & Me, they are some of the sweetest images going around especially for teenage cards and tags.
