SWIMMING
Bonjour! I'm sure all of you in England will be pleased to know that it is VERY cloudy here in France today! Here is my swimming tag. I found an image of a vintage poster advertising a French seaside resort and used part of that for my tag. I collaged it onto a back ground that I had coloured with distress ink and glimmer mist. Finally I trimmed it with some lace from my stash and some shell embellishments. Thanks for all the lovely comments made on my tags so far - it really is uplifting to read such nice things! A bientot, Carolyn x

What a beautiful tag. I love the lace you used and the way you've fitted the shells into the lace design - very stylish. The image is fantastic and I love the whole vintage feel. Gorgeous!

ReplyDeleteI love your tag! I also love getting hit in the behind by a big wave and playing in the water with children! I'm sorry to tell you all that where I live (Colombia) is sunny year round...even on rainy days...and the temperature never drops below 75 degrees...even in the middle of winter...in the middle of the night!!!
