THE OUTLAWZ GREETING CARD CHALLENGE

Today's challenge at The Outlawz Greeting Card challenge is to make a tag or to incorporate a tag on your card..

This is what I made to play along for fun:


I wasn't feeling too well today and was content to sit in my easy chair to craft this tag and so all the embellishments are sewn on.

Here's the back of the tag before I added the backing:


This is a list of the 'stuff' I used from my hoarded stash:


cream CS base - inked edges
2 different  DP - inked edges
diecut - inked edges with a silhouette digi
peel off sentiment
punched dragonfly
spray of roses and flowers
lots of sewn on sequins and beads
part of  piece of vintage (metal) costume jewellery with a satin bow attached

I also used a piece of funny webbing ribbon to make a bow

Finally, I created a 'reinforcement' around the punched hole in the tag by Copics colouring, and threaded some twine through it
