Tag You're it!

Hi friends, this post is a special and exciting one for me as it's for my guest design spot on Craft Hoarders Anonymous :)  What a great challenge site Gloria Stengel has put together here. It gives us the great opportunity to raid our stashes for the goodies to create with.  As papercrafters we are hoarders by nature, seeing a potential piece of art or embellishment in everyday objects, never mind the actual goods we purchase.  Give her site a click and check out what fun you can have, and add the opp to win, well, more stash goods! lol

This is challenge # 11 and it's called Tag You're It!  Here's my tag -







I used a combo of G45's Once Upon A Springtime and Botanical Tea collections for the tag.  I created a pocket on the bottom third of the it to put BT's notecards in, and my flowers are made from the Heartfelt Creation's stamp collection and die, then I dipped them in Utee for a glass like effect. The butterflies are from a printable I have. Butterflies are one of my most fave embellies next to flowers :)
