TAG, your it!

I love making tags. I think it's the instant gratification of how quickly they come together.  And they are a great way to dress up simple packages or bags. I love making everything I send out or give look like a pretty present. Don't we all just love unwrapping surprises?!

 I made a few to share with you today.  

This is my final pin cushion for the Hat Pin swap I'm in. The embellishments are cut with PTI dies and the fabric is Moda.

 

And here are some of the tags I used to package the pin cushions and hat pins. I pulled out a few of my PTI anniversary sets for these projects. 

For the next two tags I stamped the blooms with the back side of the stamp first with a lighter color then stamped the actual stamp with a darker color.  I love the demension it adds to the blooms. 

 

That's all I've got for today but stop back Wednesday for another brilliant photo from my everyday life. Ok, so maybe not brilliant but I will certainly be sharing one of my favorite crafts from this week. 

Have an awesome week, and thanks so much for commenting. It really does add a smile to my day!

TGIF!

I always love Fridays! To me Friday is all about hanging with the family, going out to dinner and starting off the weekend.  I'm so happy it's almost spring, Rita's opened here and I'm just waiting for things to warm up so I can break out the new spring dresses. I'm always cold so I only wear dresses in the winter for very special occasions.  One more month and ill have a week of wearing dresses in the Caribbean, I'm so excited! 

Today's share is one of my favorite pin books I made for the hat pin swap at Splitcoast Stampers. The fabric is Moda and the felt is from Papertrey Ink.  I used heat and bond to adhere the letters and flowers. 

These are some of the inside pages.  

 I used stazon and stamped on canvas. Heat and bond works great with the canvas!  I loved the mini friendship jar.

The book turned out a little smaller then I would have liked but I used my new serger to cut and sew the fabric I had pre-quilted.

Thanks for stopping by and have a fun weekend!
