We don’t need to tell you that tags and labels are two of the trendiest items to hit the card making market in a long time! And, to help you add style and pizzazz to your creations, Flourishes has teamed up with Spellbinders™ Paper Arts to make sure you have the perfect set of stamps to match a darling set of tag style dies.
Wonderfully whimsical and reminiscent of Grandma’s calico prints, Flourishes “charming” set offers three labels that coordinate perfectly with Spellbinders S4-322 Grommet Tags. Designed by Becky Fleck, you'll also find six beautiful sentiments and four accent stamps to dress up your labels!
Pair that with Flourishes Country Charm Borders and you have the perfect set to make darling note cards in minutes. Flourishes coordinating Country Charm Borders set features five border strips that match the labels set to a tee. What fun!
Because Flourishes knew this set was PERFECT with Spellbinder's Grommet Tags, both design teams are joining forces for a fun-filled “show and tell” blog hop! This is what I created…
Taking an A2 sized card, I stamped the scalloped border twice with straight edges touching to make a wider border in the middle of the card front.
I stamped the smallest tag image and the “Speak Of Your Gratitude” sentiment onto white cardstock. Using a piece of scrap that was previously cut/embossed the Grommet Tags with, I aligned it over the stamp image. This gives me perfect placement when cutting and embossing. Secure with repositionable tape.
Next, I stamped the narrow border onto pink cardstock and cut with trimmer. Then I cut tails on the ends and gently pleated to form a ribbon.
To assemble the card, I used liquid adhesive for the ribbon to place in the center and foam squares to give the stamped tag dimension.
To give a finished look, I added pearls to each end of the tag before placing on top of the ribbon. Then added three more pearls on the card front for a subtle accent by the border.
Here is a second look…
