Today I thought I'd put together some simple but lovely gift tags that I can use in the future when I may not have the time to make them.
Using Helmar's wonderful Premium Craft, Gemstone and Craft and Hobby PVA glues they were a breeze to put together.
Together with some glitter glue, lovely lace, ribbon, pearl trim and irredescent beads
To start with find the paper of your choice, I used Prima's 'Devine' paper and cut a tag 3.5" high x 3" wide, fold in half to form a tag that is 1.5" wide, trim top corners off evenly.
Using the Craft and Hobby PVA glue, glue the folded tag together neatly, flatten and allow to dry.
Once dry, go around the edges of the tag with glitter, I used Antique Gold, allow to dry.
Once this has dried, you can now add your lace using Helmar Premium Craft Glue, trim around the edges where necessary and then apply a little of the Helmar Gemstone Glue in various places around the lace to attach the irredescent beads. This glue is ideal for clear and irredescent products because it won't cause any clouding.
Once this has dried, attach a folded ribbon to the top using Helmars Premium Craft Glue and finish off with a small embellishment, I used a little flower from some beaded trim.
I've left the backs rather plain so that there is a place to write on.
I hope you like these easy to make tags, thank you for stopping by today :)
