A Friendship Tag

Hi everyone! Happy September!! I hope you had a great Labor Day weekend! Having that extra day off made a world of difference--went to a cookout, a street festival downtown, had a little more time to hang out with family, plus get a little extra sleep! I tell you,  I wish every weekend could be like this one.

Patterned Paper: K&Co. Image stamp: Unity, Sentiment stamp: unknown

Prima flowers and ribbon: from stash

With everything going on, I didn't work on my last project for August until this evening. It's a tag for my friend Randi, since both National Girlfriends Day and Sisters Day were last month.

We met at our local scrapbook store over ten years ago, and have been friends every since! We chat about everything from crafty stuff to everyday happenings. So when I saw this stamp from Unity, I had to get it and make her something special. This tag was so fun to make, and I really hope she likes it! Hopefully it also inspires you to make something for your sister or the special friends in your life. Thanks for stopping by,

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!
