Today I’m sharing a small mixed media tag inspired by the theme Things With Wings.
I decided to create something with a warm vintage feel, combining texture, layers and one of my favorite motifs lately: bees.

For the background I used a honeycomb thinlits to add dimension and interest, then layered different shades of browns, golds and muted neutrals to keep everything soft and aged. I love how the metallic touches catch the light without overpowering the project.

The bee became the focal point of the tag. I kept the wings lighter to create contrast against the darker background and added stitching, threads and worn edges for a more organic look. The black ribbon at the top gives the piece a little extra movement and finishes the tag nicely.

To complete everything, I added the word happy in a bold warm gold. I liked the contrast between the distressed textures and the brighter sentiment.

This was such a fun project to make and a good reminder that even small tags can tell a story through layers and texture.

And that’s all for today, If you have any questions, suggestions or if you want to let me know what  you think of this project, leave a message!

Stay happy , stay creative…Till next time!

Ciao Zoey
