Valentine Tags 2016

Hi friends!  We got through last weekend's blizzard fine except for a leak in a roof vent.  Fortunately, the roofer came out right away and sealed things.  Hopefully, that will take care of it.

With Valentine's Day fast approaching, I have made several tags.  Today, I will share two of them with you.


First up is a tag I made with several diecuts from an older line of K&Co.  The base is a premade tag that I have had in my stash forever.  I simply attached a heart doily to the tag.  A piece of crochet lace was placed at the bottom.  The diecuts were adhered with some foam squares.  A couple of paper flowers were added with rhinestones.  A button with a twine bow was placed on a felt heart and added to the tag.  A piece of lace trim was tied to the top of the tag.


My next tag features a fabric image from Crafty Secrets.  A premade tag was covered with pretty paper from Recollections.  I added a cream colored piece of paper from the same paper pad with the edge shape made from a Martha Stewart doily punch.  Next came the heart doily and then the fabric image added with foam squares for dimension.  Various pieces of trim and flowers from my stash complete the tag.


I tend to save all different odds and ends which I used to put this tag together.  It feels good to use up some of those things!


Next time, I'll share a couple more Valentine tags.  It's hard to believe February arrives tomorrow!  I'm enjoying the coziness of the winter season even though some of it has been unusually mild.  Thanks for taking the time to stop by.  I look forward to reading your sweet comments.  Have a wonderful week!
