Gift Tags with Flowers for Mother's Day

Welcome to the month of May! I think the thing I love most about this month is flowers. All of sudden everything is in bloom and beautiful colors abound.

Today I'm featuring a set of gift tags I created with Deena's Bottle Cap Images - Mother's Day Flowers. The colors are gorgeous!!

There are six different floral images and you will get six of each -- for a total of 36 images on a page! The size of each round is a bit larger than one-inch.

I printed the downloadable on white card stock and punched out four of rounds using my 1-1/4" punch -- this leaves a bit of white around the edges, but I like the way they pop against the background of the tags.

I used four manila tags and lightly sprayed them with turquoise mist. When they dried, I stamped them with botanical images also in turquoise. To add a bit of contrast, I stamped "carte postale" in sepia colored ink to give them a vintage feel. I also distressed the edges of the tag in the sepia color.

For lack of a better word, I "scrunched" each round to give it a distressed feel and embellished each with a brad. I attached each bottle cap image to a tag and for a finishing touch tied a strip of turquoise seam binding to the top. The flower colors match perfectly with the turquoise accent!

These tags would be a lovely addition to a Mother's Day gift box or gift bag! The flowers images are so bright and cheery!!

Have a wonderful Mother's Day everyone! See you next time!

Tri-Fold Card & Tags

April showers bring May flowers making this file perfect to use for anything, "April", "showers" and/or, "butterflies".

 

You get 2 different size tags in 3 different designs for a total of 6 tags and you can print as many as you need. You can find this file here: Ewe-N-Me Printables.

 

The large tags are laid out on the page right next to each other making it a perfect Tri-Fold Card cut.

 

 

 After cutting the large tags out as one piece I scored the dividing lines to form the Tri-Fold then I added some stickles, "rain drops" on the umbrella, sequins to the little butterfly and some Glossy Accents to the rain drops underneath the umbrella. I also added Glossy Accents to the two other sides of the fold.

I added a die cut butterfly, sentiment and butterfly stamp to the inside.

On the small tags I added some Glossy Accents and some twine.

 



Thank you for stopping by to take a look.

Vintage Advertising Cards

Happy Monday and Happy Memorial Day everyone!

I've always been drawn toward vintage photos and newsprint and today I'm featuring cards I created using Deena's Collage Sheet - Vintage Advertising 101.

Each page offers six different images in two sizes -- for a total of 12 images. I couldn't resist them!

I like to keep things simple so after printing out the sheet I cut out two of the smaller images and glued them each to a tag that was distress painted. I inked the edges of the image and the tag to give them a rustic look.

I used a kraft card as the base to keep the color palette neutral. I cut out a piece of yellow burlap and stapled that to the top and bottom of the card (stapling is so quick and unmessy!!). Burlap is fun to work with and it adds a lot of interest and texture to any project.

For the finishing touch, I added metallic embellishments -- a round tag and a hanger. They kept with the rustic and vintage look of the cards and also added some fun! These cards were super easy and super quick to make.

I hope you enjoyed today's feature! For more collage sheets, visit the Ewe-N-Me Printables website here.

Tweet Heart Tags

Hi, it's Deena here, showing off some cute tags I whipped up the other day. It only took a few minutes to finish them, that's just how easy they are.

I used the printable file Hang Tags - Tweet Hearts which feature some really cute valentine birds by Cheryl Seslar. I printed the tags on white card stock.

I added blue card stock trimmed a bit larger than the tag as a backing, some twine and eyelets to embellish.

I think these will make cute little valentines to give to friends, teachers and co-workers. They'd be nice with a Giradelli chocolate square attached to the back too.


Thanks for stopping by today!

Sheep Tag Ornies

Good morning! Happy Happy Monday.

I hope that everyone had a good weekend.

I must confess something this morning....shhhh don't tell anyone.

BUT I adore sheep! I also LOVE tags!

So when I seen this sheep tag set I just had to have it,

 and I knew exactly what I was going to make with them.

Yep sheep tag ornies. 

In my craft room I have a tree up all year. I try and decorate for the seasons.

Right now I have all fall things on the tree so these sheep feel right at home.

I put the sheep tag on some fall colored paper. Then attached a button with some string and hot glued it to the back of the tag to make it dangle.

Have I told you I LOVE hot glue!!

Each tag has a different color button. You could use real wool thread if you would like.

I am allergic so I used good ole cotton thread.

These were so simple to make. You could also hang them from a peg on your prim shelf.

You can find this collection by going here Sepia Sheep

Until Next Time!
