Tim's Tag for March.

Here is my take on Tim's March tag. I didn't have quite a bit of his kit this month but wanted to keep it as near his creation as I could as it is such a lovely Spring tag and as the UK temperature has plummeted again I wanted to look at pretty colours!

I do not have his seasonal papers but found a pretty paper in my stash that was pale blue, pink and yellow. I used my spellbinders frame to cut out the pink frame and used the small tinsel background as instructed by Tim and dabbed blue alcohol ink on it. I used a little green felt bunny as I do not own his movers and shakers die (yet) and then died the ribbon with Picked Raspberry stain. Once again no tapered fringe die so I hand cut some card I stained with Mowed Lawn, (how I love that colour!) and then bent some of the strips forward. I have run out of metal foliage so used some wooden flower shapes I have had for ages and as my Distress Paint has not arrived yet used acrylic pink and yellow on the flowers. I do own the Tattered Banners die (phew) but not his 'just right for the job' sentiments but found a small stamp that sounded just right. Distress stained ribbon at the top and a touch of Spring sits on my mantlepiece for a while! Thanks Tim, great inspiration and techniques as always.
