Tags, Tags and More Tags!

It's design team sister Raquel's turn to host our challenge at My Sheri Crafts. We were being asked to make tags. It has been a while since I made a shadowbox tag, so I made one. I colored a Julie Nutting wooden doll with Copic markers. I used the chipboard packaging it came with to make my shadowbox. I covered the shadowbox with paper from Athentique, and added some K&Co embellishments. I also stamped the sentiment with a Julie Nutting stamp. The aqua-colored sequins are from CTMH and the mermaid's necklace is from Julie Nutting for Prima. I lined the sides on the shadowbox tag with washi tape from Recollections.

Tag...you're it! It's your turn to make tags and share them with us at My Sheri Crafts!

Stitch Time!

Sue from our DT at My Sheri Crafts challenged us with a sewing inspired project this time around.  I made three "feminized Tim Holtz" tags using Tim Holtz stamps and Sizzix dies.  The designer paper is from Melody Ross for GCD Studios.  I used the resist technique for the background, with the exception of the third tag.  The lace is from Charlotte, the ribbon is from The Paper Studio and the trim is from a Cricut Message Board swap.  I added Baker's twine and crystals from Recollections for added bling.

Graphic 45 Altered Notebook and Tags

Our theme for this week at My Sheri Crafts is "All About Girls." I wanted to feature some vintage ladies for this week's projects. I used paper from Graphic 45's Communique and Fashionista, and Gartner. I altered a composition notebook (it costs about a dollar at WM) and made a couple of tags. The black diamond crystals are from Prima. The black velvet ribbon and red ribbon flowers are from Offray. To accent the binding, I added some stickpins. I covered the edges of the notebook with Tim Holtz tissue tape for a cleaner look.

The brown lace lining the inner pocket is from Prima.

I made an envelope for the page next to the back cover, for receipts, coupons, etc. The film strip used on the notebook is from Tim Holtz, attached using Glossy Accents.

The "J" charm at the back cover is from Tim Holtz.


I made the black bead flourishes on the tags using Enamel Accents.
