A Little Pre-fall Fun...

Hi everyone! I wanted to share some tags that I made for a swap over on SOC...A fall tag swap!! Now I love all things fall, so I was SO excited about participating in this one. Here are my tags:

Embossing folder: Provocraft, Embossing Powder: Ranger
Yarn and Vellum: Unknown

These "double-embossed" tags were really easy to make! First, I cut the tags to the desired size, then punched the top corners with a corner punch. Then used an embossing folder with my Cuttlebug (love my bug!!) Then I heat embossed the leaf onto pre-cut 2" squares. Next, I matted those squares onto the vellum. You really can't see it in the picture here, but for a little extra shimmer, I used metallic copper rub-ons to finish the look. Easy right? These tags were all made with things I already had in my stash too! (Bonus!!)

Well, I hope I inspired you to have a little pre-fall fun of your own! If you make any fall tags, post your link in the comments. I'd love to see them! Thanks for stopping by, and I hope you'll drop by again soon!
...And That's All She Wrote!
