Sea Birds

Hello!
from a Bright and Sunny Essex!!
(Yes...... We have a some sun at long last !!)
.....So just a quickie 'Sea Bird' tag from me...
....because I want to make the most of this rare and lovely weather to tidy up the garden!!
...you don't know just how long it will last LOL!!
-oOo=
So....
I rummaged in my scraps box and found this clothing tag
(primark)...I chose it because of the red and blue design on it.... 
....then I just added a Crafty Individuals collage image of the beach huts and bird, and stuck another CI sea gull image inside a bottle cap with glossy accents and added a little sprinkle of beads and shells

...wrapped some red fibers around the bottom and added a couple of beads...
...and Hey presto...a quick and simple tag.

-oOo-
Now..I'm not over keen on those pesky sea gulls...
.....but I can't wait to see all the lovely tags this week!
-oOo-
  By the way, thanks to everyone for taking the time to leave such kind and encouraging comments every week! 
They make me Smile!!
Have a fab week my fellow taggers!
Thanks for peeking!

  3. For a "quickie"tag, this is amazing. I love the bottle cap and all of the amazing little pieces that a gull certainly would have accumulated.

  8. I love that you have made a work of art from an old clothing tag! The bottle cap of tiny treasures is a lovely embellishment. I might have to save that idea for RON....LateR ON!

  12. Brilliant idea with the bottle cap. Has given me an idea for a card design. I always keep the tags from clothing too as some of the designs are pretty cool. I couldn't find the beach hut card I knew I had for last weeks theme. Found it today whilst looking for something else!! Masy have been a quick tag to make but it is far from simple with all those elements you have put together. Hugs Mrs A.
