Tag Tuesdays ~ Rock-pools & Sea Birds

Rock-pools & Beach Finds ~ July 24th

I kept things simple with this one.

Watercolour background tag, highlighted with iridescent glitter and sequins

I added little pebbles

collected while on holiday on South Coast of England.
Tie: A hand dyed acrylic hollow yarn

Sea Birds ~ July 17th

Again a simple painted watercolour background tag

featuring seagulls in flight 

and a seagull feather collected on one of our bike rides to the park

Tie: Silver grey satin ribbon.

I wanted to add some words to this tag, which I hope to do when my printer stops playing up.

A quote from Jonathan Livingston Seagull ~ Richard Bach

'His feathers glowed brilliant white now, 

and his wings were smooth and perfect as sheets of polished silver'

Tag Tuesday Casinos and Bingo

I made this tag today ready to post on Tag Tuesday,  but I got mixed up with the theme for the 7th August, so Im playing catch up tonight with a few tags that I have made so far to get all my themes up to date.

Casinos and Bingo ~7th August

I had a different idea in mind when I started to make this tag but as I was looking around my little studio, gathering things, I found myself singing one of my favourite Bob Dylan songs 

Lilly, Rosemary & The Jack of Hearts

I realised this was it it made sense and I fished out the perfect background tag cut from another birthday card with lovely high heel shoes

 and the little Lego gun, the mini playing cards are from Christmas cracker.

It's a great song I still like to listen to and can do again now that I have my record deck.
 I hope my tag depicts some idea of the story, which is too long to write down here but you can read them here Lily,Rosemary & The Jack of Hearts
