Bird Song Tag

Still wanting to play with tags, I once again took on the challenge at DragonsDream, Tag It OnThe challenge theme is the letter S (sing and song) and the color blue.
 
 
I stamped the harlequin diamonds on the tag.  I would have liked them to be a bit lighter.  I photocopied a piece of Artists' Paper onto tracing paper then cut out the area with the trees to fit my tag.  The alphabet at the top is Washi Tape and I stamped the music at the bottom.  The bird is stamped separate, cut out and glued on.

 
The back is another section of the tracing paper copy then the harlequin design stenciled and the bird and branch are also stencils.  The words and graphic are a piece of Washi Tape.
 
All very easily done and makes me look like an artist, don't you think?  LOL
 
xoxo

For some reason this tag touches me deeply. It has a classic beauty but is still modern. It's difficult to isolate any individual part - the trees, the diamonds, the branch, the choice of colours and, of course, the birds, because both sides are such integrated pieces. Yes, it's a work of art, no doubt Annie, and I love it.

Wonderful tag Annie but I have to admit - my first thought was "May the Bluebird of Happiness lay an egg in your beer." Don't ask me why but that little saying always comes to mind when I see or hear anything about a Bluebird. You always wanted a weird friend didn't you! I love the contrast between light and dark.
