Tag You're It!

I think this might be my first tag for Tag You're It 
 How is that possible?
I followed the cupcake theme...found one cupcake in the Tremendous Treats:  Birthday collection.  I had to make it with chocolate icing, of course!  I used Distress Pens to color and die cut with water color paper.
OH...the tag itself was cut with watercolor paper and can you guess what I used?
BRUSHO!!  
And it was the orange color I used!
I love how it splatters out, reminds me of fireworks and how all of a sudden the explosion is filled with lights of all colors...that is what happens with this if you just spray it at an angle and don't saturate the paper!

So fun!  I added a second tag to the back to match the berry sorbet ribbon I used.
This was very fun, I will definitely be back with more tags in the future!!
Here is the awesome inspiration tag from the very talented Nancy Penir .
 
I hope you will play along and thank you for stopping by and visiting me!!
Have a terrific week!
Heart Hugs,
Colleen

Ah yes... Brusho.. love it too! And I love your tag! Will look great on a gift.
Thank you for your lovely comment, Colleen :) I know you visit and it does not matter if you don't always leave a comment. If we did that every time, we wouldn't have time for other things, besides blogging. ;) And yes, our little Emmy is almost three... how time flies!!

Hey Colleen, gorgeous, yummy looking cupcake! And that bg is divine! Brushos heh? Wonderful effect. I just invested in Color Burst and haven't tried them, looks to be similar. Thanks for playing along at TYIC!
