Beautiful Card Designs Made Easy

Tuesday Tutorial . Jubilee Tags

Hi Everybody,

Tags are always useful to have on hand as they can personalise your designs and make them stand out. Today I am using the Jubilee Tags from Spellbinders and we are going to make them look really pretty on a small card.

Spellbinders Supplies:

Other Supplies:
Instructions:


With die #7 from Matting Basics A cut two and Create a hinged card
With #7 from Matting Basics b cut another in some patterned card and emboss
(Please remember that die #1 is always the smallest)
There are three tag designs in this set so choose the one you prefer and cut it twice from the largest piece
Stamp and emboss a sentiment that will fit onto the smaller die and cut this label piece separately
Then add the two dies together to create the frame and cut twice more
Add the smaller piece to the  basic tag with foam pads in between.
Glue the two frames together for extra strength
 When ever you are adding things in threes it is easier to add the two outside pieces first and then centralise the middle one.. That way you will get an even distribution of the shapes
Ring the change by swapping out the sentiment ... or the flowers ... or the colour ...or the tag shapes ... or rounding the corners.
But whatever you do have fun with your crafting 

More tomorrow ...

Hugs xx
