Fall Tag

On the Mod Squad Challenge blog this week, we are to make Anything But a Card. Over at Gina K. Designs, the Monthly Mix Challenge is Fall is in the Air. We are to create our own patterned paper, or use some of our Gina K. paper, with a Fall theme. I decided to make a tag with my homemade patterned paper.

To make the patterned paper, I placed the stamps on my MISTI cover, and using ink cubes, inked up the stamps and stamped them onto a piece of white cardstock. I turned the cardstock, stamped again, and repeated until the piece was covered. I coloured in the acorns with alcohol markers.

I punched the top of a piece of Sweet Mango cardstock to make the tag, punched the paper and added it to the tag. 

For the sentiment strip, I didn't have any cardstock that was the colour I wanted, so I used a piece of white and sponged on Warm Cocoa. I stamped the sentiment with VersaMark ink and heat embossed it in white. I added a piece of ribbon that seemed to match perfectly!

We're preparing to be hit by Hurricane Dorian later this evening. The rain and wind have started and a lot of people have lost power. I better get this posted before we lose power, too!
