    WOW! What a fun tag. I love the key under the dress form, it's an automat. Gives this tag a steampunk edge that I like very much.

    Lesley, this is fabulous!!! There's so much gorgeousness going on, I'm not sure where to start, actually, but I do have to say BRAVO on that stunning, multi-hued masking you did! The Art Parts are a fabulous fit for this technique, and the face in the bottlecap is brilliant. I love your tag, and I'm so glad you joined Grungy Monday #1!
