Valentine Tag Tutorial

Hello friends!

Today we are sharing a super easy tag tutorial

using this pretty vintage valentine!

Start with a manila tag or cut out tag shape from cardstock.

Print and cut valentine.

 

Using my favorite new Martha Stewart punch,

 I punched the top and bottom of a strip of yellow polka dot paper

 from the Modern Homemaker line by October Afternoon to fit the tag.

 

I then inked the tag using Fired Brick Distress Ink.

 I use the wood blending tool that has a foam pad

 to blend the ink into the paper to achieve a soft even color across the tag. 

One of my favorite products right now are these little paper doilies by Martha Stewart.

You can find them at Michaels.

 

I glued the doily behind the heart on the valentine image.

I also stamped small swirls on the top edges of the tag using the Fired Brick Distress Ink.

I adhered the image to the tag using foam pop dots to make it more dimensional.

Then I took a Signo White Gel pen and added small stitch marks around the image.

To finish off the tag,

 I took a red glitter pen and added glitter around the edges of the valentine and at the top of the tag.

I hope you enjoyed this tag tutorial today!

Have a lovely day, Lindsey
