Howdy Partner - Gift Card Tag
My birthday is on the 20th, so naturally GIFTS are on my mind!
When I started this project, the only thing I knew for sure was that I wanted to use faux wood paper to cover the tag. I spent about twenty minutes going through my paper pads and scraps (whew), before I found the papers I though would work best together. 
Forgive the coloring! My nibs were mostly dry. It has been a long time!
Another 15 minutes was consumed in looking through my ephemera. Finally, I decided to use the bottom edge of a piece of 6"x 6" paper. The grouping was nice and established the color theme for the tag! The rest was easy peasy. I used a Sizzix rub on for the face!
Supplies Used:
Tag: I traced the shape of a G45 Regular tag album onto a sheet of faux wood dp from MME's Pretty Things. I applied one coat of gesso and one coat of varnish. Looks like real wood!
Image: Prima Doll (Becky), I used Sizzix's Dress Up Faces Rub On to add a face. The paper pieced clothing is from MME's Lost and Found3 "Oliver."

I really like the blue & brown color combination. And, um, a rub-on face? Never heard of it!
ReplyDeleteFabulous tag with some great texture.
