Hi everyone! It’s a new month and I would love to share a tag I created using Eileen Hull’s Lace 3D Embossing Folder and the Faux Postage Thinlits, along with a few other dies, from her newest collection. I absolutely LOVE this embossing folder! It’s 6″x8 1/2″ so you can embossing those journal covers or even extra large cards. Anyways, let’s get started!
First, I had a scrap of Mat Board that was leftover from another project. I cut that from the Tag and Book Plates Diecut (retired) and embossed with the Lace 3D Embossing Folder. The mat board was shorter than the actual tag on the diecut, so the measurements wound up being approximately 3 1/4″x5 7/8″.
Second, I lightly inked the raised edges with a combo of two different shades of pink chalk ink. I then rubbed Ivory Luster Wax over the entire tag and once I was happy with the way it looked a lightly hit the raised areas with a tan chalk ink.
Third, I only needed the oval section of the Faux Postage Thinlits and I wanted to highlight the fairy. I cut cardstock larger than the oval area, placed onto the thinlits and run through the Diecut Machine. I know some people like to tear these dies but I used the Scissors to carefully cut out the oval and the excess.
Fourth, I cut two wreaths and leaf sprig from the Wreath and Snowflake Thinlits. I layered the wreaths on top of each other and glued to the tag. I lightly inked the edges of both the oval and negative part of the postage stamp die and adhered to the bottom edge of the wreaths. I placed Foam Pop Dots to the back of the oval before lining up and placing inside of the negative part.
Fifth, I cut two flowers from the Bookmark, Tag and Pocket Thinlits (retired), shaped with a Stylus, glued on top of each other and added a gem to the center. I cut two leaves from the leaf sprig, shaped and placed on the back of the flower. I made a bow with thread and adhered to the edge of the oval along with the flower.
Sixth, I cut the small and medium size hearts from the Envelope, Folder and Flowers Thinlits, inked with chalk ink and glued both onto the upper corner of the wreath and added a few sequins to finish the tag.
