Welcome welcome to another day of crafting and creating. Today I have made this tag for my  Just Add Flair tutorial for this month. I have this mighty scrap box that is over flowing with scraps and more scraps. So I on a mission to use some. I am getting there.... My tag measures about 3 1/8 x 6 3/8 inches I think it is about a size 8 tag. My papers and collectables come from the  Kaisercraft PS I love you collection I have just torn pieces and glued them onto the front of the tag,  distressed edges where it was needed. Some are raised with foam tape and other are flat. I then glued on the flowers, clock, butterflies, hearts and words all from the collectable pack. I added a flair button right in the middle of the paper heart and also had some coloured pink gauze in my stash and poked it in here and there to add some contrast. I used a stapler to adhere the gauze to the top of the tag. Just Add Flair products Lux flair but...

Welcome again to another month this tutorial is for  Off the Rails My layout today is made from a kit I bought from Kitaholics. And yes the photo is off my grand daughter Zarna Rose. The heart was printed on the pattern paper. So I cut it out carefully with a craft knife. I used a needle and carefully poked some holes around the heart design,  Then hand sewed around the heart with the twine. I also added some thin gold washi tape.  I cut a piece of cardstock and taped it to the back of the background piece to fill the heart hole shape. Using foam tape, tape the heart to the background.  I have added flowers, papers and embellies to the layout and also went around using my  finger with gold paint and then added some black ink to the edges as well. Products used White cardstock Simple Stories Love and Adore collection papers Pink and white twine Thin gold washi tape Black ink pad White doily Chipbo...

Welcome everyone.  My turn again for the  Memory Maze  design team project. I have created a tag for this month it measures 3 1/8 x 6 3/8 inches. I am trying very hard to use up my scraps I have used the  Kaisercraft Coastal Escape collection. I cut the bottom paper at 6x3 inches then another piece at 5 3/4 x 2 inches. Glue these to the front of the tag, oh firstly go around the edges with  an edge distresser. I also added a shell tag under the top paper. I used a mask from Memory Maze and some light texture paste and applied this to the top of my tag. I then went and pulled out the circle piece with the mermaid on it and the shells,  starfish and the seaweed. I covered all these with some white paint, anything will do I just added it so the colour will stand out more. I used some Tim Holtz distress crayons, on the mermaid I added some black marks to make scales and hair. I also added some of the colours around and splash...
