Tag Challenge at Joan's Gardens.....

With the coming of the new year, Joan at Joan's Gardens promised some new things for us to participate in and she is standing true to her word!  From now until June of this year, each Tuesday we are challenged to create a tag to enter.  This will help us get a jump on tags that we will need throughout the coming year.  Hop on over to Joan's Gardens and check this out! Weekly winners will be voted for so please support me if you can!   I am not on top of my game with creating tags, so this will be a chance for me to learn some new things.  I love tags to go along with a little gift so I'm going to try and participate each and every week!  Why don't you join in....this could be a lot of fun!!


I do love pink and green and cream together.  So here we go.  My tag was covered with crumpled up tissue paper sprayed with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist and glued to the tag.  From there I just started adding elements.  The flower was made with Prima E Line Flowers (I just love making my own flowers!) The ornamental tag used to hold the sentiment is a Spellbinders Die purchased several years ago and I didn't know to mark them back then; so I have no idea what the name is.  I cut one end off so it would fit the tag.  All the rest of supplies will be listed below.  I hope you enjoy looking at this.  I have had so much fun making and isn't that what this is all about anyway.....So come on.....join in.....be creative....take the journey!

This is gorgeous Glenda! Thanks so much for stopping by my blog today and leaving kind words! You have certainly inspired me with this creation. I always think I need to stay within the boundaries of the tag but you've proven that I don't and it looks FABULOUS! My next tag will have more 'flourish' I think ... thanks for inspiration! Yes ... this should be great fun!
