Happy May Day! It’s Beth here with a textured tag tutorial that’s perfect for Spring!<\/p>\n

\"Beth<\/a>Here’s a quick tutorial – it’s so easy!<\/p>\n

\"BethPingryMerciTag2\"<\/a>First die cut desired shapes from cardstock or chipboard. I used chipboard then added some paint on top to neutralize the darker color.\u00a0 (This isn’t the order I did it, so follow the written instructions – I always figure out an easier way while I’m doing it the hard way!)<\/p>\n

Trim the die cuts and adhere them to the tag, I used E-Z Squares\u00ae. Cover the tag with an Adhesive Sheet<\/a> and burnish it down with your fingers.\u00a0 Remove the liner to reveal the adhesive covered tag, then crumple up a sheet of tissue paper and lay it onto the tag. The more wrinkles, the more texture!\"BethPingryMerciTag4\"<\/a>Next, burnish the tissue into the adhesive, so that the entire tag is covered, then trim or tear the excess. I placed the die cuts slightly off the edges and used scissors to trim.<\/p>\n

Now for the messy, I mean fun part – color! I spritzed 4 different colors onto the tag, making sure that I covered the tag. Impatient like me? Go ahead and use a heat gun to dry it quickly. \"BethPingryMerciTag5\"<\/a>Tip: I keep the yellow liners from Adhesive Sheets for other projects!<\/p>\n

Here I moved some 3D Foam Hearts<\/a> and a 3D Foam Butterfly<\/a> to an extra liner, removed the top sheets and the centers of the butterfly, then added pink glitter.<\/p>\n

\"BethPingryMerciTag6\"<\/a>I removed the rest of the butterfly and added blue glitter.<\/p>\n

\"BethPingryMerciTag7\"<\/a>Next stamp a sentiment, add the 3D Foam Hearts and 3D Foam Butterfly, a ribbon and some hand drawn lines and bubbles. I inked the edges with green chalk ink.\u00a0 The sky’s the limit here on embellishing.<\/p>\n
