Unique tag, love the use of the die-cuts, Thanks for playing along with the snazzy challenge x
Wow this is brilliant and clever thinking of Joseph's coat technique which I've not done for ages but is very effective. I'd be very happy to receive this one so fingers crossed.
Thanks for joining us at PanPastel uk this week with your stunning tag I like the blend of colour.

What a stunning creation!! Never heard of the Josephs Coat technique but the effect is certainly amazing!! Well there is something new to explore.
Thanks for entering this beautiful tag in the Snazzy's challenge!
Paula I am transfixed by the design and color! To borrow a phrase from you---this a feast for the eyes!
Hi Paula, This is a fabulous tag, I have not see this technique so will have to do a little research on the internet. I looks super.
Hi Paula, What a fabulous tag this is and someone in the swap is going to be mightily pleased (understatement there). The colours are stunning and as you say very springlike so perfect for our Snazzy DT Blog challenge so thank you for entering.
Erm, Joseph's Coat is the technique I'm going to use for my J tag mainly because I'm stumped for another J subject. The only other one that keeps popping into my head is Jubilee and I don't have any suitable stamps. I have to say I would never have thought of using it the brilliant way you have. Excellent work my friend.

The unique use of colours here looks amazing, from the soft tone background to the bold and stiking centre piece ... fantastic, thanks for joining in at Panpastel UK.
Oh Paula, this is fantastic!
The design is beautiful and intricate and I love the colours and shading.
I have to confess that I've never heard of the Josephs Coat technique...I shall have to go and google it!
