My Tag for this months Tim's Tags of 2014 April is the first one I have ever done and I really enjoyed the challenge. Luckily I finished it on Wednesday evening, so at least I have something to show you today. I used a size 8 tag and used tissue tapes here and there, before using Distress Paints to add some colour. Then I used DI to highlight the edges of my tag, before adding the Frameworks Trellis die that again I painted and distressed. My flowers were made from the Sizzix Pine Cone die and were such fun to make. The leafy fronds were also from the same die. I then dyed some seam binding using the colours on the tag.and tied it around the tag in a bow. I cannot sit very long ,so I'll try my best to get back soon. Hugs Rita xx

Hello Rita, I'm so sorry to hear of your fall and that your leg is so painful, take heed of Dr's orders and keep the leg elevated. No doubt bad pavements didn't help.
nw for your tag..... gorgeous work, I love the lattice background and your little flowers, such beautiful shades of blue too. Take care of yourself, hugs Kate x
Your tag is absolutely stunning, Rita, but I'm so sorry to hear of your fall. Hope you rest up over the weekend and are feeling much better in the morning.
Good Morning Rita, sorry to hear about your fall, but glad you are doing well. Stunning tag design, love all the details.

First, take care and get better soon, second, your tag is gorgeous!
Doing some blog catching up and found that you had a fall, so sorry to hear that you are poorly, hope that you feel much better soon. Lovely tag though, maybe crafting will take your mind off your pain.

Was looking at some older posts to determine how you injured yourself. What a bummer! I've done similar and I know it hurts! I'm glad you got attention to the injury quickly, and are following instructions to heal. Your tag is beautiful, and hard to think it is your first ever. The pine cone roses are beautiful, and love the soft colors. Stunning tag. TFS & Hugs. Feel better real soon.
Oh, Rita, I'm so sorry to hear about your fall - I do hope you're taking good care of yourself, and I'm sending lots of healing thoughts northwards.
On a happier note, here's a huge WOW for your first Tim tag - a beautiful take with such pretty flowers and fir fronds - you'll be hooked now, I'm sure!!

I had to be nosey and find out what's been happening to you - hope the foot is on the mend now after your fall.
Love your take on Tim's tag and the flowers look lovely made from the pinecone die.
