I get so many requests this time a year for weddng cards. I thought it would be fun to make a tag to tie onto a wedding gift.

All out of my Tim Holtz Tags so I improvised and made my own out of Tim Holtz water color card stock. Also, I am excited to use the new Happily Ever After stamp from the new YAY YOU release from Simon Says Stamp which launched today!! I will add a link at the bottom if you want to see the new full release.

Well let's dig into the details on how I made this wedding tag! I used some watercolor paper to make the tag. Using distress ink I blended, ink splatter and spritz with water. It was so fun to have no rules! Just smooshing and splattering with water until I liked what it looked like. I then die cut a stitched hole protector from white card stock and adhered that at the top of the tag and looped some natural twine and tied it into a bow. Using more watercolor paper I die cut an oval to fit my sentiment. I had some more fun fun ink splattering, smooshing and spraying with water in a pretty blue distress ink. When the oval was dry, I then stamped a text background to give it a romantic love letter feel. I then used gold embossing powder to heat embossed the Happily Ever After onto the oval and added it to the tag with some foam adhesive.

Last but not least, I die cut some daisies and stems out of more water color paper. Using a paint brush and water I colored them with distress inks. I added some gold watercolor accents to pull it all together.
