Beauty Tag

Happy Wednesday!

For today's post, I've created this pretty Beauty Tag. To create the tag, I've used a variety of dies and stencils from the new release from the Art Journal Specials Collection. You'll want to read below as I have a full tutorial on how to recreate my tag at home. 

To start, die cut the tag from the Butterfly Pocket Insert die out of a piece of kraft cardstock. Ink the edges of the tag using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Cut a piece of book page that measures 2 7/8" x 4 5/8". Use a corner rounder to round all four corners of the cut book page piece. Ink the edges of the book page using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

From the Flower Power Die, you'll need to choose two of the flowers. Die cut one flower out of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Die cut the other flower out of kraft cardstock.

From the Decorative Insert die, die cut one of the hearts twice out Watercolour Cardstock. Using a waterbrush and the Watercolour Palette, colour the two hearts.

Die cut one of the floral pieces from the Floral Insert Die out of a piece of Watercolour cardstock. Using a waterbrush and the Watercolour Palette, colour the floral piece.

Choose one of the girls from the Funky Chicks Stamp. Apply Jet Black Archival Ink to the girl stamp and stamp onto a piece of watercolour cardstock. Using a waterbrush and the Watercolour Palette, colour the girl in. Once the girl has dried, fussy cut her out. Ink the edges of the girl using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

From the Journal Words Stamp Set you'll need the Beauty Word. Apply Jet Black Archival Ink to the beauty word and stamp onto a piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Fussy cut the word out. Ink the edges of the word using Walnut Stain Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Adhere the book page piece to the tag.

Adhere the three floral pieces to the left hand side of the tag as desired.

Use foam squares to adhere the girl 1/2" from the left and 1/4" from the bottom of the tag. Use adhesive and foam squares to adhere the beauty word 1/8" from the right and 1/4" from the bottom of the tag.

Adhere the hearts as desired amongst the flowers and girl.

To finish the tag, tie a piece of twine through the hole at the top of the tag.

Here are a few closeup photos of the finished tag.

Here is the finished Beauty Tag.
