For this week’s tag I have made a tiny tag book.
The inside is made from one long strip of painted
watercolour paper, folded concertina fashion to make the pages of my tiny book
(it measures 8 x 7cm).
The cover is made from green felt embellished with
ribbon, lace, scraps of fabric, and rows of machine stitching and couched
threads.
Continuing on my Daisy obsession of previous weeks,
I have stitched on rows of daisy cord .
The book is fastened with a loop of embroidery thread around a vintage
daisy button and made use of my daisy paper punch.
On the 4 pages inside the book I have printed a few
special phrases about love and life. (authors unknown).
To Love and
Be Loved is
The Greatest
Joy on earth.
Infinite Love is the only Truth
Everything
else is Illusion.
You are a
Spiritual Being
having a
Human Experience.
Somewhere
along the line, we forgot
how Divine
and Special we are.
I have cut out daisies on the printed inserts so
that the background colour shows through.
The tag is finished off with yellow thread and
ribbon, gold beads, a butterfly charm and a flower bead.
I’m glad I had a bit of a thing for daisies during
February, but I’m pleased to see the new themes for March. I love Spring; it’s my favourite season.
Lots of love

Beautiful little book tag Jane. Your ideas are great!
ReplyDeleteI did do a book Tag (I posted it to my blog on Tuesday) but it was more a bookmark as I wasnt sure if I was going to get time to do a propper tag. However I finished my proper one tonight and will post it tomorrow when I can get a picture of it in daylight. Thanks for your lovely comments about my blog.
