My current obsession with tags....



Vintage tag

Tags are my current obsession. I just love using the bits and pieces from my "save-it-for-a-rainy-day" stash. *winks* The problem with making a card entirely from scraps is getting the right size envelope for the completed card. But with a tag, you don't even need an envelope! That's me rationalizing my current obsession with tags...*LOL*


I even embossed my patterned paper with a script embossing folder...:) A handmade felt bloom layered on some paper blooms [I'm slowly making a dent in that stash, yay me!].


And what's a vintage tag without a little crackle paint....:) What's your current obsession?

Inspired by the challenge at City Crafter Challenge.

Supplies: Graphic 45 patterned paper, Ranger distress ink and crackle paint, Cuttlebug embossing folder, sandpaper, ribbon, lace, paper blooms, handmade felt bloom, tulle, corrugated board.


P/s: It's your last weekend to get your entries in for LESSology Challenge #13: Chest of drawers! And come play along with my guest Virginia's shopping challenge! Have a fabulous weekend friends! See you on Monday when I unveil my super secret project...*winks* Any guesses???

    I totally hear you- a tag can be any size and can have lots of lumps, so there's no fear that it won't fit in an envelope. I love to use tags to try out new techniques.
