Hello Guys,

It's been long since I have updated my blog. I would like to apologize for taking such a long break.

Today, I want to share some tags (bookmarks) which I made recently. This is very easy to make with minimal supplies.

Some close-ups of the tags: 

As mentioned earlier, these requires very minimal supplies. I took some scraps of white card stocks, distressed it with distress ink (Worn lipstick) and stamped it with Kaisercraft clear stamp using Memento dye ink. Then I took a small sheet of card stock,distressed the edges, stamped and heat embossed it with copper embossing powder.  Lastly, I added a border die cut in order to give the final finishing. 

In this tag, I've used white card stock, in which I have pasted textured red pattern paper and a die cut "FRIENDS" in order to give final finishing. In the second one, I have used same white card stock with peacock feather distress ink and pasted same "FRIENDS" die cut.

There you go, your tag is ready :)

 In this one, I used some die cuts from "Paper Smooches" brand balloon die and pasted in a big balloon pattern. Then in a small sheet of paper, I stamped and embossed Happy Birthday sentiment from one of the Mudra's clear stamps and foam mounted beneath balloons. Again, very easy to make :) :)

Hope you enjoyed ! Any suggestions are most welcome.

Till then, "HAPPY CRAFTING" !!

I have used 5" by 5 1/2" card, in which I have randomly stamped Timbres Clair clear stamps with dye ink. I took a die cut in red cardstock and foam mounted in the center. I embossed Hot Off The Press clear stamps in a vellum paper and pasted beneath heart. I did outlining using white gel pen.
