Hello everyone, I am up over at Rubber Dance blog today with a tag set featuring gelli printed fodder elements. For these tags I used the Butterflies and Moths, Mix A Sentiment 2023 and Loose Florals 2024 stamp sets.

Here is how I created the tags:

I first started by stamping brown Distress Oxide Ink with the Mix A Sentiment 2023 stamp set onto the kraft tags. Next I took black stamp ink and the leaves from the Loose Florals 2024 stamp set and stamped black leaf images onto the tags.

Then I colored the leaf images with glitter brush pens and added some gelli printed strips to the bottom of the tags with some old book page pieces. For the gelli print piece I used the same Loose Florals 2024 stamp set.

After that I added some white gel pen circles to the background for interest and adhered some butterfly fodder and ribbon to the tags.

For finishing touches I added some liquid pearls to the butterflies and attached sticker sentiments to each tag.

Here is also a quick step-by-step to how the butterfly fodder was done:

First create a colorful gelli print. I used three tones of paint and “drew” random scribbles to the paint. Next I stamped “Butterflies and Moths 2024” with black stamp ink onto the gelli print. After that I fussy cut all the images. This way I have plenty of fodder ready for my next projects.

Creating the fodder and tags was so much fun. I hope you give it a try! While at it, make sure to try out different color combinations and patterns. This way you have plenty of material to work with for future projects.

Happy crafting,
Sanna

Hello everyone, it´s Sanna here with two present tags using the Sketchy Flowers #3 stamp set with embossing powders and watercolors. I wanted to create cute present tags with kraft cardstock and pastel tones for springtime.

I first stamped the big flower image from the Sketchy Flowers #3 stamp set onto one side of the tag with embossing ink and applied three tones of embossing ink onto the image (see the full video tutorial at the end of this post). I used light blue, yellow and white on the first tag and light pink, light blue and yellow on the second. To add more interest to the background, I took white watercolor and a wet paint brush to add splatters.

Next I fussy cut a piece of gelli printed paper (see my previous posts for the tutorial) as a border and combined it with a cute ribbon. After that I painted a piece of watercolor paper with similar colors like the previously used embossing powders. I added a heat embossed flower image onto the paper, fussy cut them and then assemblied the tags. For finishing touches I used sentiments from the said stamp set with grey stamp ink on the residue watercolor paper left over from the flowers and adhered them onto place. And here is the video step-by-step tutorial:

I hope I could inspire you to create some fun tags!! You don´t have to use them for presents, you could create a few in bulk and use them in art journals, on cards as a focal point or add them into a frame as wall art for example.

Happy crafting,
xxx, Sanna
