Tag

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:
