Instructions:

6. Emboss a square and inside the square the word “HI!” to a piece of the natural paper. Cut out around the edges and use 3-D pads to attach the piece to the tag.
7. Use the Sizzix Sidekick© and create a butterfly out of matching green paper. Use 3-D pads to attach the butterfly to the tag.
8. Insert the brad flowers in the 2 remaining holes in the tag.
