Well for my tags I made them super easy! A couple of weeks ago I did a project for a baby shower my Mom and I were invited too. The new parents are from out of state and they asked for no cards but really wanted to start a library for their baby. So I made my own wrapping paper and made a card/ gift card holder for the gift cards. They also wanted us to sign the books. So instead of easily signing the books I decided to make cute coordinating tags to personalize it!
I chose two of my favorite books my son has and still loves! So for my first tag I chose ladybugs. For my bling I just added some black glossy accents to the spots and antennas of the ladybug. i tried to make it child proof as much as possible.
The second tag the bling is the monkeys eye from Viva Decor pen!
Materials for both tags:
Cartridges ~ Zoobaloo and Walk In My Garden
Stamps ~ My Creative Time "All Star Baby" , Market Street Stamps "Burlap" , "Simply Stitched Borders" , Stampin Up "Blossom"
Extras: Twine from The Twinery, Viva Decor Pen, Black Glossy Accents, ink and chalk.
I hope you enjoyed my tags. Something so easy but fun to create. Please go over to Whimsical Wednesday's and see what my fellow design team members have created. I am sure you won't be disappointed, I can't wait to see.

I'm a kindergarten teacher, so I am all over this. I am going to share your tags with my other teacher friends here at school. They will love them too. Great job!!
These are wonderful!!!! My daughter has the 5 ladybug version of that book and it is one of her absolute favorites :)

ReplyDeleteWow Kim, those tags are fantastic. Your attention to detail & how they coordinate with the books themselves is uncanny. Your bling is just right in all the right places. The ladybugs & the monkey are such cute critters but what you did really makes them standout! Great job.
