Hi there!! Connie here with a Greatest Gift Pocket Tag using pattern paper for the pocket. So many ways this can be accomplished but here is my version!! The easy way 🙂

Greatest Gift Pocket Tag by Connie Mercer for Scrapbook Adhesives by 3L

Creating the Pocket Tag Base

Start with a large tag which I hand cut. Find coordinating ink colors to match the patterned papers that I will use as a pocket and a smaller tag. I used Distress Oxide ink for this.

I also used some cool border dies and cut them out to add length to the tag. Fussy cut the tag pocket from some pretty pattern paper for a great look. The small tag is covered with coordinating pattern paper from the same paper collection.

Stamping Tag Background

Adding in the stamps is the fun part for me. I love a vintage mixed media look. Numbers and script stamps always speak to me, so that is what I use. White ink is a nice touch too especially on a dark paper. Create with the stamps, that you love, will always be my motto!

Assemble Pocket Tag

Attach the two die cut borders together using the 3D Foam Square Micro White and set aside.
The 3D Foam Crafty Tape Black 108′ was great for the dimension I was looking for to adhere the pattern paper pocket to the tag front.
Using the E-Z Runner® Permanent Strips Refillable Dispenser, cover the smaller tag with pattern paper.
Love adding the paper dolls so I used the 3D Foam Circles White Mix for this.
Sentiments are added with the 3D Foam Strips Black.
Lastly, the bottom die cut borders are adhered with the 3D Foam Strips White.

Thanks for stopping by.
