First go at a tag

I am always amazed when I snoop round people's blogs and the gorgeous tags that are made .. .so I have finally bitten the bullet and had a go at a tag ...


 The image is Spread your Wings from Sugar Nellie, and I coloured her using my promarkers.   the dp is a digi I have had for ages, and I tore it, the tag is made from Papermania Kraft cardstock.  I cut the bird and cage from a TH die, and painted the cage with picket fence crackle paint and the bird in using DIs ... its a bit matt though, not sure why.  I added a TH adage ticket, some lace and a layered flower.  Finally some lace and ricrac through the large eyelet.

Challenges:
Ohlala Creations - tag
Try it Tuesday - tag - birds and bees
Papertake Weekly Challenge - hot, hot, hot
