My Tag a Day project is slowly reaching it's conclusion and I want to say again how much I have appreciated all of your support during the last couple of weeks. I am starting to feel much happier in my crafting again and if ever your mojo is low, I highly recommend something like this, just let go and play!
Now onto my tag, to be honest, I really don't like this one, and almost did not show it at all, for some reason it was also really hard to photograph, something kept going wrong with the colours...But then for me this whole project was about the process, not the result, so here you are, warts and all so to speak....
The leaves are from the Tim Holtz Autumn Gatherings die which has been on my wish list for ages and I finally went ahead and got it. I added the embossed bits with a stylus. The little tag was cut with an ancient old Cuttlebug die and enhanced with a Tim Holtz ticket. Here are some more detailed photos and I do hope you are not getting too bored with these tags, - 3 more to go....
Oh and just in case you have not seen this, I am hosting a little giveaway over at The Artistic Stamper, all you need to do is leave a comment there and here and you could win three colours of Distress Paints.
Thank you for visiting and have a good week
I am adding this to the Indigoblu challenge where the theme is Flowers

You know Astrid I've looked for those warts and I really can't find them. What I see is a beautiful tag with a great little pocket, fabulous flowers, leaves and butterfly and some gorgeous colours. Funny how we don't see what someone else sees. Great job.

Love the look of the tag (must get that stamp now!).
I will be sorry to see this tag project to come to an end as I have really enjoyed seeing all of them
Must say I really love this one with all the wonderful elements you have introduced and the usual fab colour choices.
You are always inspiring

Another great tag here Astrid. I love all the details you always manage to get into them, and always finds ways to show new things and ideas on them. This is awesome too.
Good Morning Astrid. This is one magnificent tag. I love all the colours and I might just take your idea and try a little pocket. The image and all the floral arrangements are just stunning. What talent you have. Hugs Rita xxxxx
Beautiful and you just give me some inspiration:)
Oh my, this is gorgeous and you don't like it :-( I think it's really great and I can't find anything wrong. Everything is where it's suppose to be and the colours are stunning.

Hello dear Astrid!
I don`t know what about this wonderful tag, you don`t like!!!!!
I think your lillac and rose/abricot together are so very impudent? (can I say that?)- LOVE it- the leaves and flowers are gorgeous, and love the stamp,too!!!wonderful with your pocket and embossed places... So I can`t agree with you, lol.
Wish you a lovely tuesday, here it rains, and we sooo need it for the garden :-)

Dear Astrid, that is a gorgeous collage tag, I'm really fascinated. Love the vibrant colors and all elements you've combined. Amazing idea are the flowers in the hair.
I was not that close to you on this journey, and am sorry about that, but just thought of you these days because I lost my inspiration too !!
anyway, I love what you did with this project and maybe I should do the same !!
I love the tags and see nothing wrong with any of them. It was a great project to see.
Another beautiful tag!! Love the colors!!
I still think it's a beautiful tag too Astrid. Glad you didn't hide it from us.
Hugs

You mo-jo seems more than good to me Astrid, this is stunning.
Only 3 left to go - I'm going to miss seeing what you've come up with each day. Always different, always gorgeous and with great ideas like the little pocket. Love the leaves on this one too. Love, Margie x

Ah, Dear Astrid, even when you believe your creations to be less than acceptable, they are so much more beautiful than what most of us can create that we love them entirely. Keep the faith in yourself and press on.
Be Blessed!
Think this is my favourite so far - my favourite colours and such a beautiful composition. Looks like your mojo is well and truly working on top form. Hugs, Jenny x
This is beautiful Astrid!

Tell me where to buy those wart - I want some!!!!! Your tag is gorgeous - love the colors and the way the leaves seem to pop out. I also love the tag stuck in the tag!! I think your tag is beautiful!!

What is not to like? This is gorgeous, I do love the flowers and leaves, especially around her hair, and the colors are to die for! You have that magic touch!!
I know it's all in the eye of the beholder.. but I love this tag. I can't imagine why you didn't, the colors are magnificent.. all the images just perfect. Call me crazy, but it looks like I'm not the only one!!!
Beautiful! I love the color! No disappointments here...amazing!
Another beautiful tag, looove the colors, all the beautiful stamping on the background with that lovely image, oh an you know I looove those little pockets with the sweet tags, I love it, so thank you very much for showing it to us...Tired of seeing them are you crazy we love them all, I get so excited when I see your post in my mail.
More fabulous colour and that stamp from Indigoblu is so beautiful.
Love the leaves and details you have incorporated and the pockets are brilliant.
TTS and hugs

Dear Astrid, What a lovely tag this is. I have enjoyed all the tags you have done so far. The colors of this tag are awesome. I will miss the tags when you are finished. I will remember to use your ideas when I lose inspiration. A great idea.
Nope... I'm having trouble finding warts, I'm afraid! The layering of the decoupaged flowers and butterflies works brilliantly, and the detail of the stylus embossing on the leaves is fabulous (glad you treated yourself to the die - I think it's a wonderful one), and the colours are so fabulous... I especially love that ribbon on the inserted tag, picking up the colours of the flowers - yum!

I could just look at your tags all day! Such rich and elegant colors and I just love those flowers! Enjoy!
Love the way the colors turned out. Gorgeous Tag!!!
