It's a tag, but not a tag! I used one of the large tags and covered it with Authentique's Valentine paper for this year. I always love their holiday themed collections. I inked the edges with Vintage Photo DI. The banner was part of the paper's design. I cut out one of the vintage images from another sheet of the paper and cut a slit above the banner so I could tuck the corner of the image in. The background is a 6x6 inch piece of red paper. I cut a Tattered Doily out of white cardstock using the On the Edge die from Tim Holtz. After sponging it with Vintage Photo DI I put it down on the background paper and glued the tag over it. I created a bow from shear ribbon from my ribbon stash and attached that to the top along with two crystal "hat pins". Using Kaiser Craft Sparkles I tacked down the ribbon streamers and "sprinkled" them around the tag and background. A little "Forever" sticker fills in the corner. I cut an easel with the easel die from TH and attached it to the back so it's free standing. Here are some details.
You may notice that there are no hearts in this Valentine project! Well, that's because I wanted to enter it in the latest challenge over at Frilly and Funkie. This challenge is to make something for Valentine's Day using the traditional red, pink and white but NO hearts! That was a challenge I couldn't pass up. All that red and pink and Valentine sentiment but no hearts.
Well, I hope this post is putting some bright color into your day. Thank you so much for visiting me and for all the wonderful comments you leave for me. Have a wonderful day.
