Birds

For this weeks tag, I started of by adhering a vintage music to my tag. (It was a song about the sea). When this was dry I applied a paper napkin on top. This was then coated with a layer of Dorlands wax medium. I then spent quite a bit of time auditioning embellishment's to find the right one. Everything just made it too fussy, so ended up with three tiny sea-shells. The words 'fly' came about because of the book 'Jonathan Livingstone Seagull'. I shredded some sari silk to resemble seaweed to finish my tag.
I am soooo enjoying this challenge, not only making the tags, but being inspired by every ones work.
