I decided to step out of my boundaries today and try something different (thanks Elise, you inspired me with your gorgeous vintage card!). I'm not sure if I achieved the vintage/shabby chic look on my tag, but at the very least I was happy that I used some of my old stash in the process, which would be the fibers and K&Co Grand Adhesions Teddy Friends.
My DPs (also from my old stash) are Karen Foster and Daisy D's. The edges were distressed with Tim Holtz's Paper Distresser and Antique Linen Distress Ink. I made the flower at the top with the Die-namics Rolled Flower Die and my beautiful seam binding ribbon was dyed by Donna (thanks again Donna, I love your ribbons!).
The challenges I'm entering:
Simon Says Stamp and Show a Tag!
Simon Says...Make Your Own Embellishment! (my flower)
A Spoonfull of Sugar, #139 - Anything but a Card
Cupcake Craft Challenges, #129 - I heart You
Creative Inspirations, #53 - Distress
Hope you are having a great week. Thanks for dropping by!

gorgeous shabby/vintage tag, Shirley! that lace in the background is just perfect! such a pretty design, love love this!
Gorgeous tag Shirley! I love that shabby chic look and you did it using some of your stash. That's why we all save those bits and pieces; we know that someday we can turn it into something beautiful....and you did! I think that the tag will probably be loved as much as the gift to which it's attached.
very cute tag

love all the lace & bits you have used,
grate dimention,
