Tag It On #5 - Walk like an Egyptian

"Another week and another challenge. This time I would like you to do something with an Egyptian flavour, hence

Walk Like an Egyptian.

At least one stamp please, and that's about it.... not too many restrictions this time as you all played so nicely last week!! It could just be the colours you associate with ancient Egypt. So over to you, any tag any shape, any colour so long as it is walking like an Egyptian!! ENJOY!!"

oooo I loved that song...I think it was by The Bangles way back in time hehe! The theme rang big bells for me as I have only just had a tidy up of my stamps and found an Egyptian set by Tanda that I had never even opened!!! I wanted the colours to reflect the dusty desert area outside Cairo...I think I have done ok.

I was pleased that the Tutenkhamen stamp wasn't perfect as I think it adds to it. What do you think??? Come to think of it I have used 4 different stamps on this one hehe

Thank you for taking a peep, hugs XXX

Now I love that stamp, or rather, those stamps Karen hee hee. Love the gold background. Is that done with a Krylon pen? Very lovely and sets it off perfectly. Ooh, love the little beads too. XX

Great tag and yes, I think the slightly hit and miss appearance of the Tut stamp adds to the worn and ancient look!

It looks great, and it is a nice touch that the King Tut didn't come out perfect.
