Old Fashioned Tag


Here's a tag I put together with some snippets of cardstock, designer paper, twine and ribbon. I used a Lawn Fawn "Tag it" die set to cut the tags from vanilla and SU designer paper, then used a SU! Hearts A Flutter framelits die set to cut the small red scalloped top element. The greens were cut with a Martha Stewart fern punch and dotted with gold stickles for a little sparkle. I added a SU! sentiment from Teeny Tiny Wishes, a twine bow, and some vanilla ribbon with a snippet of gold cord.

I'm sharing this with the following challenges:

Pixies Snippets Playground #258 - must use snippets

Tuesday Throwdown TT321 - make a tag

Craftyhazelnut's Patterned Paper challenge for December - use patterned paper

CHNC 310 - make it vintage

CHNC challenge extra for December 2016 - Christmas anything goes

Thanks for stopping by and I hope your day is fabulous!

Just as pretty as can be. You picked the perfect snippets of papers and your ribbon and twine kind of frame the fern nicely. Just a treasure. Have a good Sunday.
