Please pop by to see what Alison and the DT have made, fabulous inspiration projects!
I was inspired by Summer Holiday by Cliff Richard and made a luggage tag for my next trip to the Bahamas! (not really ;-)) I remember singing this song in the car when we were on our way to the coast when we were kids, happy memories :-)
I actually listened to this song while making the tag, you can listen in while scrolling down if you like!
I used a Tim Holtz Beach Side Order Die and Embossing Folder Set to create a desert island scene on a Tim Holtz Framelits Tag
I used Broken China and Salty Ocean Distress Oxide Inks to colour the background and then used the embossing folder in the set to add the waves. I applied a little glue using a thin brush, and sprinkled with Prisma Glitter, lovely sparkle!
I used a strip of card, coloured with Squeezed Lemonade and Wild Honey Inks and die cut the sun, star fish and flip flop thongs from Simon's Exclusive Glitter Card.
I added a couple of strips of Washi Tape and a few seagulls from a Simon's Exclusive Sea You Soon Set to finish ;-)
Thanks for looking!
So now it's YOUR turn to get creating!

Oh Lols..what a playful tag you made...I love it! And the song is perfect!!! Hugs xxx
I am smiling from ear to ear while listening to the song (via Spotify). I wasn't familiar with it--the lyrics are great (the music from this era was so happy and cheerful). The scene you've created is idyllic and oh how it makes me long for my own summer holiday!
Oh my goodness--so creative, Lorraine! I absolutely love the glittered stenciling for the waves!
This is absolutely gorgeous Lols, I love the sea and I love your beautiful luggage tag and Cliff's song is the perfect accompaniment! We are experiencing some lovely summery weather here in the UK! Hugs, Anne xx
Just popped back to say thank you for joining in our Words and Music challenge at A Vintage Journey! xx
Totally stunning as always your so talented with all that you make x
What a fun tag Lols! Glitter cardstock is perfect and I adore how you used Tim's dies! Barbara
I love this tag full of sunshine, sand and surf... especially those sparkling waves in the sea - a brilliant effect. I'd like to go on your Summer Holiday if this is how it looks!! How lovely to have you joining us on A Vintage Journey this month too.

Oh I almost can feel the summer breeze from your tag! Such a delicate and pretty scene, the colors are so peaceful and relaxing. LOve the beach with this great palm tree! Fabulous. Hugs, Marzena
Gorgeous and perfectly summery tag, Lols! Of course, I love the shimmer and how the sentiment is off the edge a bit. Fab design!

Cute little beach tag, Lols! Your scene is right where I would love to be! hugs, Maura
This song always reminds me of my Mum as she is a bit of a Cliff fan and Summer Holiday is just one of those songs that makes you smile wide and think happy thoughts, which is exactly what I think when I see your lovely tag...it's just so cute Lols and all those little details are perfect! Hugs xx
Love this fun and delightful tag! Lols. all the summer elements are fantastic! :)
This tag is fantastic Lols! I love the happy and summery feeling that you created, with the beautiful color sand the glitter. Gorgeous!!
Wow, girl! You do know how to create a scene (in the best way, of course)! Your artwork always makes me happy and relaxed and like I want to go somewhere pretty or do something worthwhile. I especially like the texture and little details you included.
Very beautiful tag. Thanks for joining us at Card Mania Challenges. Good luck and hope you'll join us again.

Such a cute tag, Lols! It gives me a real tropical feeling and it's hot here, so it really fits perfectly! Maybe I should make me a cocktail to complete the vibe! haha Hugs, Sandra
