What are my favourite colours


My Favourite Colour Combination 
is the new theme over at Tag Tuesday

I enjoyed making this tag and used two Oxide inks as my colour choices.

Chrissie is hosting this theme and it wasn't at all easy to pick out  what I like best.
Choosing colours for me can depend on many things....is the sun shining..... is it dull
....am  I happy....... what am I making  ....... etc.
So for this tag I chose to go blue and green, for me, two colours of summer.
I



I used a coat of white gesso as a base.
Blended on the two colours, then spritzed  the tag with water. After drying  I stamped  some flowers and script.. The same colours were used on the die cuts.

The butterflies were digital additions.



Thank you for calling in to see me today,  you are most welcome here.

    Holy cow. This is a fantastic tag. I agree that colors depend on mood, time of year, and project. This tag is simply adorable and the way you embellished the tag simply amazes me. What you added made it a truly unique and beautiful piece of art!

    I love this tag Yvonne.....and the way you show us how it's made. Difficult to tell your fav. colors but if you ask anyone about mine there will be 1 color they are going to say....lol....pink.....but I see myself using more and more other colors. It's like you say...it depends on other things like your mood etc....
    Have a lovely weekend Yvonne.....xxx Plony

    So, so lovely - these are some of my favourites too, Yvonne, and I love the light, summery feel of this tag. Great use of the wildflower die-cuts and delightful butterflies.
