I made two tags for two friends with different tastes:
The one above used Country Life. I used the Cricut Craft Room to extend her pant legs and make boots from her previously bare feet. I hand cut her jacket, trimmed her previously long hair, and added a leash. Her dog, Sneaker, loves to wear bandanas and go for walks. The flower is from the Flower Shoppe and is inked with Copics and Sneaker’s “boots” were inked with a white Uni-ball Signo pen. The tag is from Winter Frolic and the red cardstock is embossed with a rose pattern from Lifestyle Crafts. It was inked with Barn Door Distress Ink to bring out more of the dimension. I have to say, I really love how this turned out. I hope my friend does too.
The one below used Something to Celebrate for the birds with their heart and I used the same embossing folder as the previous tag. I inked it and added glossy accents and glitter. This is the same Winter Frolic tag. The branch is the “tree” from Paper Doll dress up turned sideways. There is a lot of pattern and glitter on this tag – aqua and red is one of the recipient’s favorite color combos (and mine too). The roses were made from the Mother’s Day Bouquet cartridge. I wrote the Happy Valentine Day (couldn’t fit the ‘s) on the heart as my friend loves those conversation hearts (that I couldn’t find anywhere)….And although it is very different than the tag above, I really love this one too!
Both tags include an Tim Holtz easel stand so the recipients can stand them up if they choose.
And here is one attached to a red gift bag:
Wherever you are today, I hope your day is sweet!
Two wonderful tags! Love both of them, but Sneaker is especially marvelous!!
I was reading this and bam it hit me, thats my baby. Thank you and yes I love the tag, now I get to go downstairs and open my gift, thanks again
Works of art. First, let’s talk about that dog. OMGosh, Sis! How perfect and fun is that guy!? I think the bandana did me in! Perfect with the embossing, the colors, the mini prints! Love the flowers too!
Wow- the second one needs to be framed. You are a genius with pattern. This tag reads like a collage with so much energy. Perfect flowers, the extended branch, coordinated colors and prints. Just so much fun to look at.
I am sure your friends will use the easels because they are so lovely – pun not intended.
Happy Valentine’s Day and thank you for this wonderful visual candy!
