It's Monday and that means a new Simon Says Stamp Monday Challenge! This week it's all about "Based on a Book".
The book that since my childhood is my favorite, is the secret garden. I remember when I went to buy it with my mom in a special shop in the city next to our small town. I've read the book countless times and that really shows. I still have the book and will cherish it forever along with the beautiful memories.
It was time for a tag, I've used the new Distress Mixed Media tag (Thanks Anita!). With different colors of washi tape (Thanks Anita!) I've made the base of my background. With on top a layer of Opal Magic Blue-Gold paint. When that was dry I grabbed some of the Infusions, Emerald Isle for the color of the plants and A Bit Jaded the color of the sky.
I've colored the Bird Branch die cut (Thanks, Cathie!) with different colors of Distress Inks and with Distress Crayon I gave it a little more dimension. The Garden Greens (Thanks, Cathie!) are colored with different sprays, a homemade one made with Peeled Paint Reinker and Sour Apple Perfect Pearls and Dylusions Cut Grass. But before I sprayed them the flowers were first painted with Opal Magic Blue-Gold paint to resist the spray.

Beautiful nature on your tag! I love the clever use of washi as a background and Infuions of course. Great mix of colors! LOve the branch a lot! Hugs, Marzena
Gorgeous tag, Sandra! Love your colors, and the sweet little bird! I am intrigued by the quilt like squares you have created at the top with the washi. hugs, Maura
A stunner, and snap on the book Sandra! Brilliant job on the whole tag that looks incredibly vibrant and lush - just as the garden would look in my mind's eye. The way you used the tape for the backdrop works fantastically. Thanks so much for sharing your process - watching and enjoying the music has livened me up no end - I was practically bopping along lol! Nicola x

Gorgeous tag. Using all the Washi tape to make the background is an inspired idea! Lou x
This is amazing! I really love the way this turned out and am always so interested to see how you created that yummy-looking background. I especially love how it softly blends from blue to green. This is one of my favorites of yours (and I have a lot of favorites of yours)!
I am going to place an order with some Infusions! And you know that the merit is yours! I like so much how you use them that I would try it too! I love the background and all the details of your tag! Amazing job! Barbara
