Springtime Tuesday ( except it's not Spring)

 Tag Tuesday's theme is Spring Flowers. Of course, it's not Spring here in Australia, but that doesn't matter - anytime is a good time to celebrate flowers. 

My tags  were little 'nature notes" I created for #the100dayproject, where I am responding to colour prompts, #coloricombo, curated by Este Macleod. The first is a collaged "tag" with a painted background (watercolour) and a blue flower ( fabric) appliqued and stitched. The tag itself is a scrap of inked paper with magazine text.  

The second  tag is a another collaged "nature note" with postage stamp. Torn paper and fabric have been used on a background of  white washed print and my own  garden notes. 

The third, strictly speaking does not depict flowers, but those little gum nuts were once  flowers and if you look carefully, the snippet of fabric in the right bottom corner is a floral print. 

All of these are responses to the colour combination of soft blue, pea green, green gold and guava. 

While exploring these colours, I also manipulated some photos and these inspired me to put this nature note tags together.  Here's an example 

Wherever you are, I hope you are enjoying beautiful weather and the joy Nature brings every season.
