Cards & Tags Thursday - Katie Skiff


Hello there!!  It's Katie again sharing some fun projects with you again this week. 

Often times, the paper in a 6x6 paper pack is so great, it needs to stand out and stand alone.  The big, bold patterns sometimes need to take center stage. So I kept this card very simple, using papers from the Fancy Pants Park Bench 6x6 pad.  The turquoise strip is also a paper in that pad. 
 
I used my Janome Mini to do some stitching around the edges and then I added the Happy flair from the Fancy Pants line as well.  I finished this card with a birthday sentiment stamp. 

I like to have some tags on hand as well.  Often times, we get invited to last minute parties and I want to add a tag to our quick gift.

I used a tag die I have to create the base.  Then I pulled papers from the MME Memorable 6x6 pad.  These mini journaling sections were a fun addition to the tags as a place to jot a name. 

I embellished both with the Brads pack and some ribbon and twine.

I like the combination aquamarine and light pink, it looks like a spring freshness touch...
