Fairy Dust Tag February Blog Hop w/video tutorial

Happy hop day Peeps!  It’s time for another fun hop with the folks at Really Reasonable Ribbon.

We’re sharing the projects created with the February Ribbon Club Assortment Purple & Green Mix.

You should be coming to me from my friend Gloria. If you’re just joining in you’ll want to go to the RRR blog to start at the beginning.

I created a tag using the ribbon assortment and Fairy Dust from Graphic 45.

I feel like this ribbon and paper collection were made to be together : )

I’ve added a lovely selection of flowers to coordinate, along with some berry sprigs and die cut leaves.

Super poofy bow to top off this tag : ) There’s some Violet Burlap String as well.

A sweet little die cut doily in crisp white breaks up the busy patterns and lightens up the color scheme.

Please enjoy this video tutorial on how I created this tag…..

Use Your Wings Large Tag

Hey there Peeps! I’m dropping in today to share a large tag I created with some of my favorite card making elements.

I did mention it’s large right? It’s 5 1/4 x 9 inches. Go big or go home is what I say. BTW this also applies to french fries lol.

Pretty lace and trim with bling and pearls anchor the bottom of this tag and add sparkle.

I’ve given a crackle finish to this Eiffel Tower chippie and layered a sweet sentiment on top. Matching sequins and die cut doily are the perfect accent to the textured chipboard.

The background pattern is applied with a Ranger stencil and grape colored ink. I’ve also inked the flourish die cut tucked into the flowers.

This lovely little butterfly was the inspiration for this tag.

I love these very purpley flowers so much I added some to the top and bottom of this tag. A bit of ribbon, and sugared berries, and Prills are the final element and I think they look great!

Silent Night Winter Birds Christmas Greeting Card with Video Tutorial

Hello everyone and welcome back! I’m sharing a lovely nature inspired Christmas greeting card today that I created using the Winter Birds Christmas Tags printable from our shop. I really do love birds in winter….well all the time really. But there’s just something so sweet about a fragile little creature out in the elements and still being lovely.

I chose the patterned papers to coordinate with the tag. The dark red paid balances the holiday foliage pattern.

 These super beautiful flowers are new to RRR and I can not even tell you how much I love them!!! I’ve made a small arrangement here with the blooms and altered chipboard and glittery accents.

The die cut wreath matches the one on the tag perfectly and creates a nice base for all the layers. Adding a bit of chunky twine and a simple tied bow of satin ribbon helps to balance the flowers and tucking in a doily helps to break up the busy patterns.

I am obsessed with actual vintage buttons and I always think they are well worth the work to scour antique shops to find them…like a vintagy treasure hunt.

All I needed to finish this card was a tiny sentiment and clip in holiday green.

We’ve prepared a process video for this card so you can see how it was created.  I hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it.

You say Witch Halloween Tag

Hello there!  I’ve got a frightfully fun tag to share today created with a not so traditional color scheme for Halloween.

So much purple!!!!! The inspiration was the swimsuit on this extra vintagy and glamours witch.

This is a super fun arrangement of flowers with spiral stamens, sugared berries, and coordinating Prills.

Chipboard spider webs and gate make a fabulous base for all the holiday embellies.

You know I can’t resist ribbons and twine and sequins.

Christmas Friends Shaker Tag

Well helloooo there Paper Peeps. Ginny here with another installment of Christmas in July and this time I’m using a garden full of flowers from Really Reasonable Ribbon along with trims of course.

This is just so cheerful and sweet. I stamped and colored those little images. I do love to color.

Did I mention this is a shaker tag? I’m slightly obsessed with them right now.  Inside are coordinating sequins and Shaved Ice. These little cuties were a bit lost on the busy background pattern so layered in a bit of a snowy border hill for them to stand on.

 

So. Many. Flowers. Isn’t the burlap trim a wonderful texture behind the snowflake printed satin?

I added a bit of tinsel trim for extra sparkle and included a twine loop to hang.

Really Reasonable Ribbon~  Tea Rose in Red 40 mm, White Open Roses 15mm, Sweetheart Blossoms in Red, Spiral Stamens in Red, Burlap Center Stitch Red, Snowflakes on Red Satin, Scor-Tape, Tombow 3D Foam Tabs.

April Blog Hopping with RRR

Hey there! Time again for another fun hop at RRR.

We’re sharing the projects we created with the Aqua Ribbon Club Aqua and Coral Mix.

You know I love these fresh bright colors! One of my favorite combinations : )

You should be coming to me from Gloria. If you’re just joining in you’ll want to head on over to the Really Reasonable Ribbon Blog to start at the beginning.

So I’m sharing many projects today as I’ve created a really great new Butterfly and Clocks Tags Digital Collage Sheet and once I printed it I was having so much fun I couldn’t stop. The great thing about this sheet besides the fact that it’s a Dollar Download Item is that you can create 3 finished tags with the sheet just as it is. Or if you’re like me…you can add extra emebllies to incorporate your own personal style.

The first one on the left is created just by snipping out the images and assembling the layers.  I added some 110 lb cardstock to the back as well to make them more sturdy. Topped off with my RRR trim it’s gorgeous and ready to add to a gift or to label a baked treat. The one on the right has some mixed media supplies added to antique the images a bit and then was assembled with foam spacers between the layers.  More trims, a metal eyelet and lace kicks it up a notch.

These tags have the same images but I’ve added chipboard, dimensional flowers, and metal embellies.

I’ve taken the tags a bit further now and added one to a card base with simple cardstock and an embossed texture. I’ve wound the ribbons and lace around to create a coordinating background that shows off the focal tag as the centerpiece.  And last but not least…my favorite.  I dug in my stash just a bit to find some patterned papers that matched the butterfly and created a larger tag to adhere a die cut doily, the printed and snipped images, flowers and more of the beautiful RRR trims.

I could have kept going all day as there are so many great uses for tags.  And at only $1 for the download file  I’ll bet you’ll have a hard time stopping too!

Okay that’s all for me. Wishing all of you a happy and productive day : ) G

Layered Cameo Tags

Hey there Peeps! Ginny here to share some very vintagy inspired tags with cameos .  I’ve never actually owned a cameo…..but now I think I may need to change that as these are so my style!!!

These chippies were a snap to alter so I went ahead and made several tags.

 

I’ve layered the Cameos onto some chippies that reminded me of doilies for an even more vintagy look.

I pulled out all the girly embellies like lace and ribbons to make these tags even more feminine.
