Favorite Peep

I've been wanting to break-out my Cricut lately and needed to make a little "something" for Easter...so when I saw this adorable tag on A Child's Year cartridge I knew it was the cut that was meant to be.


Lot's of fun details, and my DIY sticker turned embellishment is the butterfly. After putting the sticker on cardstock I used my Epiphany Shapemaker which punches a circle shape and adheres the bubble cap over the image, all at the same time...I LOVE IT and use it, all the time!!!

A banner, spring border die, rub-ons, flowers, stickers, Viva Pearl Pen, Glossy Accents, and a googly eye...


I cut the tag base once and the chick two more times so I could pop-dot them. A little TH Distress Ink and Glossy Accents on the feet and beak completed this cut.

Fairy Princess Card w/ Tag

It seems I've picked up extra days at work the past couple of weeks and haven't been able to get to my craft area as much as I've wanted, so my thought was to combine a few challenges with my limited time. Lucky for me, there were a couple of duplicate theme's making it pretty easy to accomplish this week....not to mention that making tags is probably one of my favorite projects to do.

I used the gorgeous MME Bella Bella DP and found a sheet in the stack with a filigree around the outer edges of the paper, so I just fussy cut it and used it in place of the rick-rack on the 365 Days sketch. There was a tad bit left, so I added it to the corner of the tag. I used the clear stamp set Fairy Princess from TGF for all the sentiments, mushroom, and fairies...such a cute and versatile set! A couple of different punches were used, along with lace, Viva Decor Pearl Pens, twine, Copics, and stickers. Stickers?! Yes, the buttons are stickers...I put glossy accents over them to give them some dimension.



I love the little details!
