Tag it On - Bed of Roses

The hurricane has gone. Today the electricity came back on after being off for almost 96 hours. After I cleaned out both the chest freezer and the refrigerator and did various other things to clean up the house from its "camping-like" experience, I finally had time to check email and blog challenges.

This tag is for Tag it On, where Bed of Roses is the theme.

I started with a cereal box on which I used gesso and bits and pieces of vintage images. The rose is stamped onto acetate with brown StaZon and attached to the tag.

I just noticed that Metal is supposed to be a part of the tag. I have added a metal button. See the revised tag below.
