Instructions:
Tip: After adding each new piece of paper, cut excess paper away by turning tag over and trimming along the edge.
1. First, cover the entire tag with the light blue scrapbook paper.
2. Tear now a sheet of of the green paper and glue it diagonally onto the tag as you see in the picture above.
3. Cut a piece of net ribbon that is not as wide or as long as the large tag. Adhere the net ribbon using the clear double sided adhesive.
4. Cut a small rectangle out that measures 3.5 cm x 6 cm out of the white cardstock. Cover this small tag with the green paper. Tear now a sheet of the light blue paper and cover the bottom of the small tag with it.
5. Punch a hole through both the large tag and the small tag.
6. Adhere a piece of green paper on the white cardstock . Punch now out the larger country heart from this piece as well as 2 “postal stamps”..
7. Punch out 3 small hearts.
8. Adhere one heart using stick glue to the “postal stamp” Add a piece of 3-D foam pad on the backside of the other two small hearts. Adhere each of these hearts on the “postal stamps”. Add 3-D foam pads to the backside of the “postal stamps” and now stick these to the bottom of the tag.
9. Wrap the country heart with wire and secure the wire ends on the backside of the heart. Now add 3-D foam tape to the backside of the heart and stick it to the small tag.
10. Cut a thin piece of the netting and insert it through the holes at the top of both tags and tie them together.
11. Use jewel glue to stick on the glass nuggets randomly on the tags.
