C85 Shabby Rose Collection Love Tag for Fab Scraps

Today at Fab Scraps I am sharing this fun but easy Tag. I used C85 Shabby Rose Collection. Tags come in so many styles, shapes and so many product options. 

FOR THIS LAYOUT YOU WILL NEED:

Supply List:

Paper: C85 Shabby Rose Collection

Stickers: ST85001

Accents: dew drops

Punch: Martha Stewart

Other: cardstock, twine, ribbon, micron black pen

INSTRUCTIONS:

STEP #1: Making tags if fun and easy. I allows you to use small pieces after creating with a new collection. So collect lots of coordinating pieces, some accents and some cardstock for base and matting. Grab your hole punch and some twine and ribbon to tie off.

STEP #2: A standard base is about 3" x 6". I like to cut a base then cut the layer above slightly smaller and this is the piece I create with before putting it onto the main background. This allows for some odd things like wrapping with twined for example before applying to the base.

STEP #3: I chose to use strip pieces which I glued to a base the estimated size to fit on slight angle.

The lowest piece was punched to add more dimension and I added the dew drop accents.

STEP #4: It's always fun to add tags, pennants or banners on a tag. I made a small pennant for out the side. I used 2 different prints to make it matted to black cardstock. I finished with xoxoxo doodled with micron black pen.

STEP #5: I chose the Love ladder sticker to finish off the front of my tag. I stuck it to white cardstock, fussy cut around it and then matted again and fussy cut on black cardstock

STEP #6: When this main piece is all together I then tilt it slightly and glue to the main base which is a full 2 layers when done.

STEP #7 When it's all together you circle punch the layers and then add twine and or ribbon to accent it. 

Tags are done on a small scale so there is so many fun options to create them... layer them... place off the edge and you can add 3D accents of all kinds too.

Fab Scraps C88 Floral Dreams Collection making a Tag

At Fab Scraps I am sharing the fun tag creatied using C88 Floral Dreams Collection. Tags are awesome on so many projects.

FOR THIS TAG YOU WILL NEED:

Paper: C88 Floral Dreams Collection  002 Melody, 003 Sprinkles, 001 Flutter Shine, C87 Journey in Time 008 Travelogue

Other: cardstock, SRM stickers, ribbons, sequins

INSTRUCTIONS:

STEP 1: Cut your cardstock base... standard size is about 3"x 6". I decided to to a double base for colour. I then decided to fussy cut some shapes and designs out of the collection.

STEP 2: Without gluing down anything layout  your proposed tag and this allows you to make alterations if you decide to remove or add more accents. It is also great to add off the edge items to give dimension to a tag.

STEP 3: In this photo you can see I added an additional dark print tag off to left side, added inked edges to the shapes and glued down a few sequin accents. I also added some SRM sticker scalloped stitches.

STEP 4: Last thing to add is the fun mix of ribbons, trims to the punched out tag. It's great to add colours that accent the colours of the papers.

Tags can be used to add to gifts, boxes, or even treat bags on the table for parties. So many options.. you can also vary the sizes to accommodate what you want them for. Christmas tags are awesome too.. just remember to have fun.. anything goes when creating.

Thanks for joining me today.  I had fun creating this tag to share with you.
