1. First you need to cut your tag out and glue a piece of your scrapbook paper onto it. Chalk the edges afterwards to antique the page.
|
|
|
2. To make the reinforcement for the tag, take a small piece of the brown bag or envelope and fold it in half. Punch a small hole using the hole puncher.
|
|
|
3. Now take the circle puncher and center the hole. Punch through both layers.
|
|
|
4. Glue both layers together and now you have a reinforcement piece for your tag. Punch a hole in the top center of the tag and glue this piece centered over the hole.
|
|
|
5. Tear a small piece of the brown paper bag or brown envelope and stamp it with the pigment stamp pad.
|
|
|
6. Glue the stamped piece to the bottom of the tag. Cut a strip of corrugated cardboard on the left side over it. Turn tag over and cut away excess paper hanging over the tag.
|
|
|
7. Print out your motif and glue it onto a piece of cardstock if you would like to make it more sturdy. Now stick the piece using double sided adhesive tape onto the tag in a diagonal way.

|
|
8. Cut a small square of jute ribbon and remove every third fiber.
|
|
|
9. Take these fibers and tie them through the hole in the top of the tag. Punch a hole at the bottom right of the tag and also add a gold square brad if you would like.
|
|
|
10. Glue a torn piece of fiber paper to the top of the cardstock. Use clear double sided adhesive tape to stick the jute ribbon at the bottom of the card.
|
|
|
11. Now use double sided adhesive tape to adhere the tag onto the card.
|
|
|
12. Take the brown paper clip and use it to secure the feather to the top of the card as a special effect.
|
|
|
13. This is now how the assembled collage card looks.
