| | This is the follow on Jumbo tag for my Year in Review Album depicting the change in weather in a matter of days and unusual for this time of year.
I decided that trying to create on the back of my previous tag would create all kinds of mess and Topsy Turvy may be no more LOL, so this one will be simply glued onto the back.
Where I come from there's a saying that it's "raining cats and dogs" so I knew I wanted to depict this as it certainly was doing that on this day. I also think somewhere deep in my sub-conscious that I may have seen this used before somewhere so it's not an original scene. Plus I like crazy stuff and TH's cats and dogs appealed to my sense of humour
I'd taken a few shots of the day's weather and tried to capture the colours using lots and lots of TH distress inks and oxides were used. It just wasn't happening so gelatos were added.
On any rainy day, there's always some colour and I wanted to have some flowers on the tag. Mr Umbrella Man also looked too gloomy so a rainbow umbrella was added.
It was a fairly easy tag to make...the hardest part was spending time trying to get the BG colours right. I still feel it's lacking something and knowing me I will add more. It needs puddles of cats and dogs LOL but I don't have any images small enough
The tags are 12 x 4" and I may go larger next time...the Bigger the Better I say
TFL. Happy day |
