Make It Monday #267 & Colour Throwdown #418

Well, Sage, Jonah & Austin's parent-teacher conferences
are coming up this Thursday evening.... and this year, they all
have them on the same night.
It's my custom to make Butter Crunch for their teachers -- and this fall, I have twelve in all!
So, it was very timely that this week's Make It Monday at Papertrey Ink

I also used the Colour Throwdown #418 for inspiration to make 
the tags that I'll tie to the bags of butter crunch.


Here are my tags:
  

I diecut them from Stamper's Select White cardstock using
my Tag Sale #5 die.
Using my Songbirds stamp set, I stamped the leaves, inking them up
with Hawaiian Shores and Melon Berry inks and then spritzing 
them with water before stamping them onto my tags.
I repeated the process with Orange Zest and Berry Sorbet inks.


I stamped the sentiment, also from Songbirds, in Versafine Onyx Black ink.

Thanks for looking!
