One of my favorite challenges celebrates one year today! Thank you Louise for your dedication to do this!
The theme was 52 and as I just got new distress inks, I thought I would have to use them on a tag. I have symbolized the 5 with four pearl and one gem embellishment and the 2 with two dragonflies. All stamps are Hero Arts except the 52 numbers.
I never use orange or yellow but I'm going to give them a try for a while.
I cannot sit too long behind the Internet today as I decided to do some exercise yesterday and I'm sore all over...
AND A HUGE THANKS FOR ALL THE WELL WISHES I RECEIVED FOR MY WEDDING ANNIVERSARY - IT MADE ME SO HAPPY!
Wonderful! Love the dimensions and the centers on the flowers.
ReplyDeleteI know you've been thinking about using different colors lately and you did it! You've used an orange shade and it is gorgeous!! So glad you are finally trying these colors, Jacqueline!! This tag turned out so beautiful! The colors are nice and soft, and your distressing looks wonderful! Can't wait for more in orange and yellow! :)
ReplyDeleteLovely and inspiring tag, Jacqueline! I love how you used yellow and orange to make this so bright and cheery. I have many thanks for Louise too, as her Tag Tuesday has been a wonderful way for many of us to exercise our creativity. Speaking of exercise...I hope your soreness will be short-lived.

It's a beautiful tag, Jacqueline, and you've used your 'different' colors beautifully.
