Vintage Tags


These are a couple tags I made for a swap...The theme was vintage floral.    I wanted a shabby type collage effect.

I used kraft paper to make the base tag.  I added a doily that I inked with Tim Holtz Walnut distress ink.  I used my dress form dies from Stampin' Up to cut the dress shape from some Basic Grey floral scraps.  I added a paper swirl, a metal brad, a paper flower (from another swap) and a Stampin' Up ivory button tied with some twine.  For the top I used glittered ivory tulle and brown satin ribbon.  Wasn't too sure about this one, but now that it is done...I like it!
