Tiny Tattered Floral Tag, 3D, Bee

Here's a quick post before the weekend...

I did say that I would be playing with my (Sizzix/Holtz) Tiny Tattered Florals set soon, didn't I?

Well...  Today's the day.  Yay!!!

I know that I'm biased, but I think this is the cutest thing I've made in a long time.
It's just so simple and girly :)




Anyhow...

Tag You're It are doing a challenge at the moment that almost has my absolute favourite colour combination ever.  If I just swap out the black for a dark brown...

But I digress...  How did I make my 'itsy bitsy' tag?

Well, the base tags are from the small set of 'Deckled Rectangles' (Spellbinders).  I've cut four, glued them back to back and hole punched at the top.

Next, I've used one of the larger flowers from the Sizzix/Holtz 'Tiny Tattered Florals' set, paired it with the largest leaf and added a stamped tag cut from my Sizzix/Thinlits 'Sweet Strawberry' set.

I just adore the embossed 'flight path' pattern that this die from the Open Studio/Memory Box 'Busy as a Bee' set makes.  I've paired this with the smaller of the Memory Box 'Jolly Bumble Bees', added a little brown ribbon and a natural, wooden peg at the top and tied a piece of white string ready to attach to a gift...   or a gift bag.

I'm so looking forward to playing with my birthday treat in August.  I bought myself the We R Memory Keepers 'Gift Bag Punch Board' some months ago ready for my husband to give to me)!!!  

Not long to go now.  Yay :)



Have a good weekend...  and thank you for taking the time to stop by...
