Hello! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. Ours was surprisingly quiet. We started off by going to Cirque du Soliel on Friday night. We saw "Toruk." It was a more theatrical production then I expected but really good. The sets for the show were AMAZING!
It was a good ending to a very bad week. It was a great way to set up the much needed weekend.
Today I had some time to make a tag for the "Tag You're It Challenge: #67." I had colored in the flowers that I wanted to use over the week but never had the time to put together the tag.
Please excuse the bad lighting on this photo. Once again I was playing around with lighting and still do not have it right. I only have so much time these days so re-taking photos is not a priority!! The tag that this was inspired by is below.
The inspiration tag had a flower so I decided to use the Altenew "Beautiful Day" set to stamp and color in. I have had this set sitting on my desk for a while but never cracked it open.
The inspiration tag also had a blue background with a doily like element. I used Tim Holtz's "Ornate" stencil with Hero Arts "Tide Pool" dye ink.
I layered everything on the tag and used Altenew's "Label Love" stamp set for the sentiment. I finished off the tag by covering all the flower elements with Spectrum Noir "Clear" Sparkle Marker.
I thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a fabulous week!!

Nora your Friday evening looks like it was wonderful. A beautiful tag and take on Nora's inspiration! Thank you so much for sharing with us at Tag You're It!
This is so beautiful Nora. I love the soft colors of the background and your coloring of the flower and leaves is so realistic!
What a lovely blossom tag!! Beautifully colored!
Have to say ... the very moment I saw your first picture in this post ... I thought >> "Cirque de Soleil!" I saw their Beatles show in Vegas a couple of years ago ... and will always always be a fan of theirs now! Magical work, isn't it?!
Nora, your tag is gorgeous! Beautiful coloring and arrangement of your flowers. I love that focal flower! Wonderful background stenciling and such a pretty shaped tag. Thanks for joining in on the fun over at Tag, You're It!
DH won't go to see Cirque.... But that's alright. Looks like you had a wonderful time, and like the show was really cool. Speaking of cool, this cool tag is the winner for sure. I love that blossom and the beautiful colors you've used for it. The doily stenciled background is really wonderful too. What a beautiful tag!! Bev
So beautiful! I love it!
Adding my voice to the others: your tag is absolutely stunning! So glad you found time to join us at Tag You're It. Hopefully, things are improving for you! Cirque de Soleil...oh my! Someday, I'd love to see a performance...
