Grandma Tag
Hi everyone, Kelli here! This weeks challenge is to make “anything but a card”, which I think is SO much fun because it gets me out of my comfort zone. I am almost strictly a card maker, so it’s always nice to try something else! Check out this post to play along!
I made a tag that can be given to a Grandma (like I made) or any other lovely lady in your life, all you have to do is change the sentiment! I used the For Every Woman stamp set by SP & Company for both the main image and the ‘Grandma’ sentiment. I stamped my image on the X-Press It Blending Paper with Memento Tuxedo Black Ink.
For the flower petals I used Copics: R22, R20 and 0 (Colorless Blender), for the center: Y35, Y23 and Y11, for the stem: G24, G21, G20, and for the vase: B21 and B0000. In the center I also used my Spica Glitter Pen in clear, even though it’s hard to tell in the pics.
The background paper is from the Faded Florals 6×6 paper pad by Wild Rose Studio.
I couldn’t find a good way to loop the ribbon through the hole in the top of the tag, so I brought out my trusty Divine Baker’s Twine in Oyster and tied all of the ends together in a bow!
For some added interest I used Glossy Accents on the vase so it would look more like glass.
Here is the ‘Grandma’ sentiment which I stamped in gray and then cut and folded into a little banner. It’s very faint, but I also stamped the other flower from the For Every Woman stamp set in yellow behind the sentiment. I finished the whole thing off with some adhesive backed pearls and white gel pen stitch lines.
Thanks for looking! 🙂
