Hi everyone! I’m back with my tag for the week. I used leftover scraps from pervious projects and used Eileen Hull’s Vintage Buttons 3D Embossing Folder and the Tag and Bookplate Diecut (retired) by Tim Holtz. Anyways, let’s get started!
First, I had leftover scraps of Mat Board that I cut a tag from using the Tag and Bookplate Diecut (retired). Since the piece of mat board was shorter than the actual tag die I have a “short” version of the tag.
I placed the tag into the Vintage Buttons 3D Embossing Folder and run through the Diecut Machine.
I lightly inked the tag with a few different shades of blue inks.
Second, I really didn’t like the how the blue looked “flat” so I lightly inked over the raised areas with a green chalk ink. Then, I applied Rose Gold Luster Wax over the raised areas of the tag. You can use a Blending Tool to apply the wax but I chose to use my finger.
Third, I gathered up my cardstock scraps, these are from 7 Gypsies… I miss this company so much, I added those to the tag. I cut a a crochet piece from the Crochet #2 Thinlits, inked with a brown chalk ink and glued to the tag. The button card piece I did add thread to each button hole before adding to the tag.
Fourth, I dug into my stash of flowers and found this vintage looking flower and glued it onto the tag.
Fifth, I finished this side of the tag with bows made from thread and lace and a button.
Sixth, I covered the back of the tag with a polkadot cardstock. I kept this side simple by adding a few scraps of cardstock to the tag.
Seventh, the little boy image and butterfly wings was already fussy cut and ready in my stash. This printable is from the Steampunk Fairy Boys Paper Dolls. I glued another piece of the crochet diecut to the tag along with the butterfly boy, a bit of lace and a button to finish this side of the tag.
