Burlap Flower Tag

Hi there, everyone!  I hope you are having an enjoyable weekend.  For those of us here in the States, it is a long Memorial Day weekend honoring those who served.  It's been a rough week for me as it appears I came down with the flu and an upper respiratory infection.  Still not feeling very well and hoping it passes soon.

Today's post is a tag using a gorgeous burlap flower.  You may recall a card I made using the same type of flower in a previous post.


I began by attaching a piece of older K&Co paper to a premade tag.  The edges were inked with Tea Dye Distress Ink.  A bit of cheesecloth was added next.  The flowers and leaves are Petaloo, and the butterfly and gems are Recollections.  Sheer ribbon was added as a finishing touch.


I really love these colors!  They just seem so peaceful and relaxing.  I never tire of the old K&Co papers--probably one of the first lines I bought and still have plenty left.

That's it for me today.  It's a beautiful day here and I hope to be feeling well enough to go out and enjoy it.  Have a wonderful week!

    Patty, your tag is simply perfection!! I love the colors you chose and the fabric blooms are such a pretty touch! Sorry to hear you've been sick, there must be quite the flu going around, so many of my friends are down with it. Hope you feel better soon! xo
