I happened to see this video from the Gelli Printing site which just happened to be about gelli printing on tags. Today's challenge was to make tags. How cool is that!
This is a "must see" video, you will definitely be inspired. It is also the first time I have gelli printed on tags. Mine aren't quite as good as Joan's in the video, but I had fun trying it and will try it again! hehe....
Not going to go into details about what I did because if you watch the video it will be self explaining. I did add some shading and splattering on my tags. I also used a tag punch as a stencil on the second from the left tag.
Sorry about the presentation, but I wanted to share the four tags I made. Gotta love that gelli plate!.....TFL :0)

Love love love your tags! I have a Gelli plate on my Christmas list and you've inspired me to make some tags if I get one. The pen accents really add a lot to the look.

Super cute tags, Cathy! Nice designs and colors. I never did invest in a Gelli plate but it looks like it would be so fun to use. Plus, I love to layer stamps for background so I think I would like it.

Wow, Cathy - these are totally fab. I love the bright, happy artsy feel to them. The tag on a tag one is super-cool for the challenge, but my favourites are the blues and reds - they have such a nautical feel to them which really appeals to me.
