This week's challenge is to create a holiday gift tag using cardstock, patterned paper, stamped and/or die cut ribbon or twine, and gems or pearls. Now, how to fit all of that on a tag? Well, let's start with a big tag. I used the largest die from the Spellbinders Labels 14. I then cut Very Vanilla cardstock and covered it with some patterned paper from Melissa Frances called "Home for the Holidays." I wanted to go for a Victorian- styled tag, so I added a lace trim along with pearl accents. Using some pinking shears, I cut a piece of cardstock stamped with music notes and added a vintage button. I then finished it off by adding different ribbons and twill. I hope everyone gets a chance to check out the Papercraft Star blog this weekend and vote on your favorite tag! Have a great weekend, and thanks for stopping by.
