Now the theme this week over at Tag You're It is "Love & Romance" as it's Valentines Day....
Me thinks I've been living with my hubby for too long now as I so do not do romantic very well at all.... I told him to stop wasting his money by buying me huge floral arrangements about 6 years ago as I thought it was a complete waste of money... heck we could both go out for a slap up meal for the amount he spent on flowers.... now we simply wish each other Happy Valentines and either go out somewhere nice for a meal of have a cosy night in with a carry out....
Suits me so much better & I feel I got value for money then. There's no worse feeling than seeing £80 of flowers wither & die a few days after the event... gosh I sound awful don't I... Sorry.
Well now that I've told you what I'm like, you'll understand when I say I don't find these tags & cards the easiest to make as my cards are normally made with my feelings put into them... this tag I had to work hard on, to try & find some romance hidden deep within...Not quite sure I've managed to accomplish this, but hey it's done now...
If you're a true romantic at heart then this is the perfect challenge for you to join in with this week...
Happy crafting

Hiya Lorraine
I agree Valentines Day nowadays can be one big rip off especially flower wise - the prices take a massive hike and it's just all too commercialised!#
Great tag - love the big bow and the flowers - I love using those kinds too!!
thanks for joining us this week!
Have a nice day!
Hugs

Don't say you don't do romance!
This is frothy and beautiful and definitely romantic!Like it lots!
Your tag is very romantic looking. We don't do valentines either. Find it too much of a rip off these days and your lucky if the flowers do last 3 days. This year my hubby got me a new desk chair. Nothing romantic about that but I sure do love having a comfy place to sit. I only gave him a card. LOL
Wow Lorraine - this is stunning...you have created a very beautiful tag - just goes to show what you can do even though it is out of the comfort zone..:) :)
