Two shabby chic tags & some flowers







Hi everyone, hope you are all getting this lovely
hot sunny weather we have today.In between
catching some rays I decided to make a couple
of tags. Not made these before, I decided on a 
shabby chic theme. I have been busy making more
 flowers too, still can't get them how I want them
 but will keep on trying ! I used a hot glue gun today,
for the ribbon ones, burnt myself a tad.I also dropped
very hot water ( only a few drops from a pan lid) on
 my foot and on my chest ( separate accidents)...... & also
 on my arm. Didn't really last however I put arnica on and
 I am fine now, talk about accident prone though lol !
ps. The pearls are real in the pics....my Pearl Anniversary
 pressie from several years ago :)
Forgot to say my eldest son did ok in the London to Camb bike
 race today , 60 miles  in 3 hrs .!

  1. Hi Viv
    These tags are just stunning! So beautiful. As for the selection of your flowers, they are gorgeous and so very sumptious!
    Please would you mind me being cheeky and asking what dies or puches you used to create them and what you used to colour them with? They are so delicate and pretty, well done you! You create the most beautiful cards.
    Take care
    Hugs

    1. Hi Debs, no I don't mind, not sure if you are talking about the tags or the flowers??on the tags I used a Magnolia die, TH Antique Linen and TH Picked Raspberry. The flowers I used various dies and some cut by hand, tell me which you want to know about or the list will be endless.Can't find how to reply to you, email me ( see contact me link on sidebar)HTH.Viv xx
