Spring is in the Air

Good Morning to you all.Seems like an age since i last blogged and created.Life just sometimes gets in the way...tut tut.Thankyou for all your comments re hubby he is okjust started to mobilize gently,Dr signed him off for another 2 weeks.
Yesterday i managed some me time well my daughter Sophie also joined me in my crafting room.So we both sat having a good old inky time.Sophie has just joined blog land would love you to pop by and leave her amessage would make her day Here.
This is a tag ive also made for the March Tag swap im in.Just love these colours reminds me of spring.Mind we have had some lovely sunny blue sky days here in Norfolk of late even got washing dry outside!
Anyways onto my tag whihc ive cut with Tim Holtz tag die.I have used various distress inks .
Wild honey,dried Marigold,Spiced Marmalade,and Rusty hinge around the edges.I have then stamped the image off a beauitful stamp called"Mariposa"This was sent in a RAK from a friend in the USA.It has the name on the stamp and a label saying bought from Michaels nothing else.so thats all i know.I embossed the image using Stamp in Up black embossing powder.Also inked the edges of the flowers whihc are from Wild Orchard Crafts.Then aded this lovely Glass embellishment from Prima to the centre of the fowers.
The ribbons are from my Halloween stash!
