So even though all the stuff is old, I needed to put them on something new to me (my stipulation). I looked for a new fold and found a card someone had done for a baby that was three tags joined together. I used that model for my own design of pocketed tags.
Original PicMy DH leaves comments on my cards at night while I am sleeping. He is currently in Kuwait.
He hated the purple ribbons at the top and said it was like trying to look through a forest. When I got up this morning, I decided he was right and replaced the ribbons with buttons and I like it SO much better. Hurray for dear husbands!

Pretty, pretty, pretty! Love that rich purple ribbon with the pink tags! Like how the little tags tuck inside the bigger ones... such a cute design!
ReplyDeleteOkay, here goes. I don't like the purple ribbons at the top. It's like getting through the forest to see the pretty designs. Maybe some buttons up there or some brads? I don't know, I'm not the arty one. Other than that, the design is so pretty and the colors are nice together. Is that what you wanted in the critique?
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful creation!
ReplyDeleteLovely little images and so nice to have all these tags as a gift.
ReplyDeleteJust beautiful! DH was right, the buttons made the difference! Thanks for playing along at Practical Scrappers!
