12 Tags pennant style: Day 12

Tim's last tag of the year was not great - a tissue flower, and one of those weird dolls without any arms, and no color to speak of.  I decided to use a backgound with more color in it, and set about making a tissue flower (really you can stamp on tissue, you don't need to buy it reprinted), when I realized that I didn't like tissue flowers.  They just look more crumply than flowery, and I didn't want a thick embellishment on my pennant, either.  I thought about what I really wanted on a pennant that I hadn't used yet, and realized that I hadn't done  a dreidl yet.  I made my dreidl out of some scraps of painted paper I had lying out, and it all came together very quickly after that.
My hebrew lettering leaves something to be desired.  You can still tell it's a dreidl, though.

This might be my favorite of all of yours. The colors are great, the dreidel lettering looks very realistic to me, but what do I know!

It has been fun to go to Tims site and then to yours and see your interpretation.

Wonderful pennant- I guess I missed this one! Wow- your dreidel looks like it is going to jump right off of the page! Awesome! Please stop by and please leave me a comment with your address! Congrats!
