I'm in the middle of blitzing my crafty room, which is long overdue! I came across box with backgrounds I'd made a long time ago and never used, so I thought I'd use a snippet of one of the backgrounds to make a tag for the Tag-Along (and ATCs) Challenge.
The background was made using the Rubber Band Technique Loll demonstrated HERE. The video was made 8 years ago, so I guess my snippet has been in the box for quite a few years! Basically the pattern was made with rubber bands around a stamping block, stamped using an embossing pad and embossed with gold embossing powder on a white piece of card. After the pattern was embossed, Distress Inks in turquoise and orange were blended over the top. I used a Stampin' Up punch to make the tag from the inked panel. I used it again with a snippet of white card to punch a top of the tag, which I layered over the inked tag and added a white strip along the bottom, corner rounding the bottom corners. The Memory Box 'Chloe Stem' die cut was in my box of odd die cuts, left over from a previous project. I found a scrap of orange ribbon, which I tied to the top of the tag. So..... as the tag made entirely of snippets, I'll be sharing my tag over in the Snippets Playground.
I am joining in the following Challenges:


A lovely tag Liz - I've several Chloe stems in my oddments box too!

ReplyDeleteFabulous tag Liz! I do so love the rubber band background, thanks for the explanation how to do it. I have the block and a stash of elastic bands - starters for ten!
