TAG IT ON

Me again,
I'm feeling inspired today :-D
I was browsing Black Dragon's blog when I saw a challenge over at Dragon's Dream, where they do a thing called Tag It On. The theme this time  is 'Bird Song'  - a novel about WW1 by Sebastian Faulks - and I was totally inspired by the story and the gorgeous creations over at Dragon's Dream.  Now, I'm not usually one for making tags - I've only ever done 3 I think, - but I recently sent off for some tags to have a play. So, here is my effort.....




I have used several images for the background and superimposed them upon each other. The lady is from itKuPiLLi, ribbon is from my stash, the rose I made myself, and the bird is a die-cut... one of a few I bought from a sweet friend Linda who is selling them at her Blog shop. Go to Scrapcat Cards by Linda to get some great die-cuts at super prices. It's a great way to get them as I couldn't afford all those cartridges she has for her Cricut !!!! I also added some extra cut out barbed wire over the top.
I hope you like my effort :-) xxxx


Challenges I am entering:
TIO - 110 ... Bird Song
Crazy Amigo - Use a Tag

    Ike, your tag is wonderful! I can't believe you've only made like three of them...ever!!! I love the black/white and splash of red mixed in with your images! I love your design! It all really works well together and the flower at the top is the perfect embellishment. Thanks so much for joining us at Simon Says Stamp and Show. <3 Candy
