BIRDS


I was inspired by the birds nesting in the trees outside my window....
....getting ready for Spring
-oOo-
I decided to raid my scraps box of 'odds and ends'
and I've gone a little collage crazy...
 I used a manilla tag for the base...
then added...
...collage scraps, lace, bingo card, cheesecloth, paperclip. postage stamp, german scrap and a cute little nest and eggs embellishment.
...all distressed with distressing inks and a paper distresser.

I thought I would take advantage of a lovely sunny afternoon
...and photograph this weeks tag outside in the garden.
-oOo-
I am soooo enjoying this creative challenge,
not only making the tags each week,
(which keeps the mojo ticking over)
but there is also sooooo much inspirational work to peek at!!
Thanks for Peeking at mine!
