Hello, hello, hello!
I'm so glad you're joining me today!
It's another Heartfelt Creations Wednesday, and this is a special one...with a very special release!
Today we are releasing the Tags and Sentiments Collection! It is a fabulous assembling of tags and coordinating sentiments! It's everything you need for album making, scrapbooking or cardmaking!
Many of you already know that I made a wedding album for my niece as her wedding gift...well, these beautiful tag dies came just in time that I was able to incorporate them into the gift!
Here's a wedding album tag I created...
I've used the large tag and it's coordinating counter part from the Album Tags and Accents Dies. I've used the Classic Wedding paper collection to mat the tag base. I chose a portion of paper that had a beautiful image along the top and side that would go with my floral cluster. I've inked all of the edges with the Ranger Archival Ink - Pink Peony. Once the two pieces were adhered together, I die cut the hole for the tag with the horizontal die included in the same tag collection.
I then die cut the pretty swirling die from the Ornamental Tags Collection and stamped the Congratulations sentiment from the Celebrate Love Cling Stamp set onto the die cut using Ranger Archival Ink - Jet Black and heat embossed it with a rose gold embossing powder. I opted to dust the embossing powder on very light as I was wanting some of the black ink to show through to give the sentiment an aged look.
Before adding the sentiment to the tag, I've used a sponge to add some dries clear glue to the swirling portions and have then sprinkled it with Crystal Clear Powder.
I added a floral cluster on the top corner consisting of a Sweet Peony, several smaller Classic Rose single blossoms, as well as a few Lush Lilacs scattered throughout. The foliage used in the cluster comes from the Classic Rose Collection, as well as the Leafy Accents Collection.
Lastly, I've added a Crystal Transparent Glitter to the preprinted images on the tag, as well as the floral cluster. The sparkle was incredible, and this picture does not do it justice!
I hope I've inspired you to get creating some specialized tags for your albums, scrapbook pages and one of a kind handmade cards! Be sure to hop on over to the Heartfelt Creations blog to check out the amazing samples the design team have created for your inspiration!
Until next time...
