Hi ~ Lori here from ScrappinMyStressAway with a tag card I made for my sister-in-law for her birthday. I am excited to be at TheBugBytes today! Pam ispired me to blend my ink but my project ended up different than I originally planned! Most of them do for me!!
I started out with a basic tag shape from Tags, Bags, Boxes and More. I used the mirror function sized at 5.20w x 4.00h. I cut out the tag at 2.46w x 3.65h and hid the slit on the top with Hide Contour. I cut out 2 sets so I can make 2 cards at a time.
Here are the cards cut out.
I grabbed this this butterfly from Hannah Montana sized at 2.45w x 1.47h. I cut out three just in case the first one did not turn out! These were cut in Canson watercolor paper that I got at Michaels.
My intent was to use my watercolor colored pencils that I have had forever (from Stampin' Up) but guess what.....I couldn't find them!! If only I had a full-time assistant/personal organizer....
I kept on going knowing that a better idea would come!
I used my Martha Stewart Edge punch on the tag and tied a skinny yellow ribbon on. I adhered it to my card with my ATG gun.
I used my home made Glimmer Mist to ink my butterflies. To see how I make my Glimmer Mist go HERE.
After the butterfly dried, I put some purple gems (from the dollar bin at Michaels) on it to bling it up!!
I put a JoysLife All Around Sentiment stamp inside.
And here is my little cute card once again! Thank you Pam for having me over to play today!!!
