The Shock of the New

I make no great artistic claims for this tag and my head was pretty devoid of any direction I wanted to go with it while I was making it - my aim was simply to try out some new stamps, new cutting files and rock candy crackle paint, to see how they performed.

The bike chain stamp is part of a set I bought a while back from Technique Tuesday. When I created my cog files I didn't have my cricut with me, so this was my first time of actually cutting them. Some of the cogs are from the set I gave away here a week or two ago and some others and the game spinners are designs I created later, which are now available on my other site (google "My Crafty Files" to find it). It may not show up too well, but the crackle paint is on the red door.

I hope you like it, click on the image for a better view :)
