Tag Tuesday Challenge -- A Bit of Fabric

Today's challenge is a bit easier than last week's:  Simply use a bit of fabric on your tag.  Or use more than a bit, if you'd like, and make your whole tag from fabric.
I actually used two small pieces of fabric on mine, one under the button and the other one appears to be largely covered up with my piece of ribbon.  But it's there:)
~~~~~~~~~~~~
I know last week was a challenging theme, but was glad to see so many give mosaics a try!
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Don't know who makes the Alphabet background stamp I used.  The image of the two women is from Artistic Outpost.   The crocheted flower is
by ScrappyPam and you can find them here.

    Love this idea - I so seldom use fabric - will have to dig around a bit.

    This is a beautiful tag. Love the vintage feel you created. The chocheted flower goes well with the fabric.

    I love a difficult challenge, so I have so much fun last week. I am also looking forward to this challenge. Thanks so much.

    I was one of the people who couldn't figure out the whole mosaic thing, lol! Now that I see the samples, I am inspired.

    Your fabric accented tag is wonderful! I just finished watching a Lesley Riley dvd, so I'm totally in the mood for this.

    Louise, your tag is so dainty and beautiful. I had to scrounge around in the storage closet to locate fabric to use. It turned out the fabric I found fit with the theme for another challenge too.

    This was very fun. I use fabric off and on and always love playing with it. Next time, I will drag out my sewing machine. I anticipated making something vintage and frilly, but funky won out in the end.
