This weeks tag is inspired by the poem by Wordsworth, 'The Green Linnet', a bird we now call the green finch.
While searching for the poem on line, I also found a piece of music by the same name, so just had to use that too.
The sheet music was coloured with Dylusions spray-fresh lime, and then I sprinkled on dishwasher salt to give a mottled effect. When this was dry, I adhered it to an acrylic bird shape I have had for quite some time, with Decopatch glossy glue. The words of the poem were adhered to a manila tag and coloured with distress inks. Lots of little white flowers from my stash to finish the tag off.
I must apologise for not visiting anyone last week, a broken laptop was the start of the problem and then when I got it back from being mended by my son, I had school reports to do. All being well, I shall be visiting everyone this week. Happy creating!!!
Beautiful tag, reminds me of a spring day! Hope you and your laptop are well this week! Valerie
