That's the Tag - Global Design Project #074

This is the first time I have entered a card in the Global Design Project challenge. It is also the first card I have used the "That's the Tag" stamp set with its coordinating "Timeless Tag Thinlets" and thoroughly enjoyed myself. This bundle proved to be perfect for this sketch challenge.


I started by punching one end of a 2 by 4 1/2" piece of Tip Top Taupe card stock  with the Scallop Tag Topper punch.

Then I proceeded to make the art piece.

First I made the basis for the tag.  This was done by die cutting  a Whisper White oval  to which the flower pattern  Thinlet was glued to.

Color was added to the flower thinlet by paper piecing.

To do this I die cut the flower tag 5 times - in Rich Razzelberry, Pool Party, Pear Pizzazz, Tip Top Taupe, and Blushing Bride.  Tombo glue was applied to each pieces from those die cuts and they were inserted in the various parts of the flower and background. A Blushing Bride piece was added to the center of the flower with a dimensional.

A dimensional was also used to adhere the art piece to the Tip Top Taupe tag.

The sentiment was first stamped  within a stamped dotted frame and die cut with one of the other thinlets (the center only).  Another identical one was die cut in Rich Razzelberry.  The rounded portions above and below the Whisper White frame were cut off, and the remaining frame was adhered to the Rich Razzelberry one using dimensionals.  A silver metallic enamel embellishment was placed on both sides of the sentiment  which was then it was adhered to the taupe tag below the flower art piece.


Lastly a 3/8" white cotton ribbon bow was placed below the sentiment.

Anyone who knows me, know that I love bling. So, I added some Dazzling Detail  to the flower parts and an Itty Butterfly was punched out in the new SAB glimmer paper and adhered to the top of the art piece. A row of rhinestones were placed in its center of the butterfly.

The base card is Rich Razzelberry, layered with Whisper White and then Falling in Love DSP.  The Tip Top Taupe tag was adhered to the left upper part of the card front.
