A couple of tags

I have never used tags on my cards before so when it was the theme of one of the LCC challenges I had to give it a go. I am pretty please with the way they have turned out, even if I do say so myself!

I made a male and female version using the same layout just changing up the colours and main image, taking inspiration from the His & Hers card class. I am gonna try and do this a bit more as it is a great way to have a stock of those tricky blokie cards.

Thanks for looking, Lorry :o) xx
