    Rustic Thank You Tags | By Sandhya Iyer

    Hello, friends! This is Design Team member Sandhya Iyer and I am sharing a pair of rustic thank you tags. These tags feature the Evening Moths die set and Thank You Foil Greetings Black tabs.

    I used Index flash cards to create my tags. First, I added a generous layer of crackle paste on 2 flashcards and set them to air-dry. What I had in my stash was ‘Golden’ brand, the cracks were very fine and barely noticeable. So after the tags dried, I crumpled them and added more interest. I ink blended around the edges with Rustic Hinge and Vintage Photo Distress inks and added black and white splatters to create an interesting background.

    Next, I die-cut the Moth Layers out of watercolor cardstock. I pulled out Distress Oxide inks and used detail blending brushes to ink the wings and body layers of the moth. I have a picture showing the colors I used to create my rustic and vibrant color combos. Then I assembled the little moths and added some detail to the wings using gel pens.

    Next, I inked the edges of another pair of index cards and adhered them to the back of the prepared backgrounds to make them more sturdy. I also added gold eyelets to the tags to harmonize with the sentiment tabs’ gold.

    I arranged the moths to my liking and adhered them with some foam tape. Finally, I added the sentiment tabs and colorful/jute twine to my tags. I finished off with a few little sprigs of dried baby’s breath tucked under the sentiment tabs.

    This brings us to the end of today’s post. Thank you so much for stopping by and I hope you have fun crafting today!

    Floral Birthday Wishes | By Sandhya Iyer

    Hello, friends! This is Design Team member Sandhya Iyer here today and I am sharing a floral birthday card featuring a gorgeous new coordinating embossing folder and stencil set. The Cheerful Floral 3D Embossing Folder and Die and coordinating Stencil set from Memory Box is fun to play with and creates gorgeous embossed florals for card fronts. Another fun new product I instantly fell in love with is the Happy Birthday Foil Greetings White Tabs. There are birthday and thank-you versions of these tabs as well as black and white versions.

    I started by gently spritzing a white card panel with water to make it damp. Then, I placed it inside the 3D embossing folder and ran it through my die-cutting machine. Next, I used the layering stencil set to ink blend my way through the layers. The floral swag looked amazing just like that.

    But then I saw the masking stencil and wanted to give it a go. So I masked the colored floral swag and ink blended a purple background with Distress oxide ink. Honestly, I was super nervous going over the background with such a dark color. But I secured my masking stencil with strong magnets and the background blending went pretty smoothly.

    Finally, I ink-blended around the edges with blue distress oxide to add more interest. I also inked around the edges of the birthday tab and adhered it to the panel. I attached the completed panel to a white card base and finished off with a few pearl embellishments.
