Hi crafty friends. It’s Kristine and I’m here today with a fun tag tutorial for you! We will be creating a beach themed tag using the Simple Stories Simple Vintage Coastal Collection. For this project, we will be using paper from the Collection Kit along with embellishments from the Foam Stickers, Decorative Brads, and Chipboard Stickers. Additional supplies include chipboard for the card base, texture paste, distress ink, pearls, and ribbon or twine. I also used two grommets at the top of my tag, but this is optional.
Making the Base
For the tag base, cut a piece of chipboard to your desired size. My chipboard measures 4 3/4” x 8 1/2”. Then, I cut the top corners into a tag shape. Next, cover the entire front of the chipboard with texture paste. If you don’t have texture paste, you can make your own at home using glue, paint, baking powder, and glitter. Ink the edges and pierce two holds at the top of the tag for the ribbon or twine.

Then, cut one piece of “On Island Time” for the bottom of the tag. My piece measures 4 3/4” x 1 3/4”. From “Sea You Soon” rip three pieces so that the white core of the paper is showing. Glue these three pieces together so they look like waves. Ink the edges of both pieces.

Next, fussy cut the palm tree and flowers from “Paradise Found” and ink the edges. To achieve a more realistic look, cut the petals of the flowers and the palm leaves so that you can curl and bend them. This will add dimension to your paper elements once they are on the tag.

Finally, it is time to start assembling the pieces to the base. Starting with the waves and wooden plank paper, glue to the bottom of the tag. Then, add glue to the flat parts of the palm tree. Be careful not to glue down the leaves at the top of the flowers at the bottom so they will lift up.

Embellishing the Tag
Once the palm tree is adhered to the tag, begin placing the remaining flowers over the flowers around the tree. Make sure to curl the petals up for more dimension and only glue the centers of each flower. Then, add a small pearl to the center of each flower.

Next, add the “Beachy” foam sticker and starfish sticker to the tag base. I tucked my sticker into the flowers. The end of the “y” hangs over the edge so I added some fine glitter to the back to remove the stickiness. You may choose to use paper and fussy cut around the “y” instead of using glitter.

Using two pieces of twine, tie a bow through the grommets at the top of the tag. Then, select one of the decorative brads and glue to the center of the twine bow. Next, add the chipboard sticker and foam flower sticker below the grommets. Using two foam heart stickers, place one just above the palm tree and the other to the right of the tree. I also added “The Beach Life” chipboard sticker to the righthand side, and the “this is paradise” chipboard sticker on top of the palm tree.

To add some extra details, add the small anchor chipboard sticker to the flower cluster, and tuck one decorative brad into the flower at the bottom. Finally, use Stickles to add some sparkle to the flower petals.

ReplyDeleteHello, crafty friends! Kristine here with an exciting tag tutorial for you all today! We're diving into creating a beach-themed tag using the gorgeous Simple Stories Simple Vintage Coastal Collection. I am stuck to do shopping for my upcoming friend wedding event so I need coupons heaven voucher code to save my money for my university fee If you have any suggestion let me know
ReplyDeleteSome of the reasons that may cause this fear include bullying, lack of self-esteem and confidence, no motivation, or even anxiety disorder. in this light, there are two aspects to deal with – the first and foremost is you need to excel in the exam. Taking professional hire exam help eliminates any possibility of having anxiety as an element in your life.
ReplyDeleteI have always had a habit since childhood of continuously learning something new, and I don't enjoy sitting idly. The article that you posted is quite good. I will also try to create such a tag, but right now I am busy completing an assignment. There is a site that I know of, Assignment Writing Service UK, which provides excellent services. Now, I need to contact them.
ReplyDeleteThis post brings to mind the struggle of juggling serious academic work with the urge to just relax and enjoy life, like a tropical getaway. Imagine working on a challenging MBA assignment writing service while dreaming of a peaceful beach with palm trees swinging in the breeze. The stress of meeting deadlines and delivering quality work can feel overwhelming, much like trying to focus on a complex task while being distracted by the allure of a paradise vacation.
ReplyDeleteI really enjoyed making beachy tropical designs during my university days, and it brought me a lot of joy because it was my hobby. However, due to my passion for this, I often left my work incomplete. As a result, my dissertation also remained unfinished. Eventually, I used dissertation proposal writing services to complete my incomplete dissertation.
