Birdsong Tag Swap

Several months ago, Karla Nathan posted a call for a tag swap featuring birds. The subject of the tag swap was inspired by her Birdsong creative retreat she hosted. I participated in one of her previous swaps, "Puppy Love" and treasure the little tag book she put together for me. I jumped at the chance to do another one.

At the time, it felt like I had all the time in the world to get it done......but I just couldn't seem to think of how and what I wanted to use to create my tags. I kept looking for just the right paper and embellishments to use, but nothing really seemed to jump up and inspire me.

So, when the deadline for the tag swap was soon approaching, I knew I had to come up with something.....and these are what I finally put together......they are simple but incorporate some vintage elements....

A roll of bird theme paper from Camas Antiques......

Tags cuts, pictures pasted, and trimmed with cotton lace.......

Sparkling with vintage glitter, old white buttons, and tied with scraps of lace.......

I'm excited to get my tag book back.....I love to look at all the artwork from other swappers. I'm sure that I'll be pleased :).

Blessings!
