Once Upon a Time Tag

Hi everyone!  It's been a windy, raw weekend here; but thank goodness, we missed the hurricane--just dealing with a nor'easter.  With World Cardmaking Day yesterday, it was a good weekend to spend indoors crafting.  I did make a card but have to put the finishing details on it.

Halloween is just around the corner, so I pulled out my Graphic 45 "An Eerie Tale" papers and made a tag.  I think this tag fits a storybook theme more than Halloween.  What do you think?


I began with a tag base cut from a box of cereal and adhered papers to both sides.  The doily was a gift and almost looks like a spiderweb.  I then layered a diecut from another sheet of paper, a Martha Stewart doily and a Graphic 45 chipboard tag.  All the edges were inked in Tea Dye and Black Soot.  The flowers, leaves and rhinestones are from Recollections.  If you click on the photo, you can get a better look at the delicately glittered leaves.  A piece of black lace from Making Memories was attached to the bottom, and an orange ribbon with purple tinsel tied to the top.


I made another tag for Halloween but only took photos on my phone.  Not being tech savvy, I need to figure out how to upload them to the computer.  lol

Well, that's it for today.  I appreciate you stopping by.  Thank you very much for the sweet comments left on my blog last week.  Have a wonderful week ahead!
