Tag Tuesday - A Bit of Fabric


'Hydrangea Princess'

A Bit of Fabric is the theme at Tag Tuesday this week - how fantastic!  You might already know that I love, love, love fabric.  I've been sorting things out in the 'studio' this past week (not that you would be able to tell after spending the day there today).  Anyway a tidy-up often reveals hidden treasures and I came across this fabric tag that been attached to a jacket I bought 5 odd years ago!  See it truly pays to never throw out anything because  you never know when it may come in handy!!!

I've just started participating in the online course 'Romancing The Paper' being taught be the very talented Rachel Emilie Jackson over at Crescendoh.  This week we have been learning about drying and preserving flowers.  It's been so much fun and I just had to include a hydrangea flower in my tag today, freshly pressed this week!

All these wonderful stamped images are from Oxford Impressions Fairy Sweets plate.

This is adorable - I love the way you incorporated the fabric. I need to build a stash! I just watched a Lesley Riley dvd and it really put me in the mood to do more fabric art.

Such a cute tag. I am a fan of using flowers (recent post with hydrangea blooms dried last year) and a huge fan of Rachel Jackson. The stamped image works perfectly. TFS. Lynne M

Your tag is great! Thanks so much for visiting my blog - how cook to know that in Australia our yoyo's are called Suffolk puff flowers! Very cool! Thanks again! Becky G. in GA/US

It DOES pay to keep things around. I love to organize, clean up and throw things out, so I am recently trying to hang on to more things!!
Great bunch of embellishments on your tag.
