My Cards and Tags: Bird Tag

I'm still so excited about Spring even though it SNOWED today.  What???  I know.  Slush did not go well with my open-toed heels at all.  Be that as it may, I've still been trying to get my Spring on when it comes to my cards and tags!

Here's a tag I made using an absolutely adorable bird die from Lifestyle Crafts.  I also made the tag itself from a Lifestyle Crafts die featured in the Tag It Kit (one of my all-time faves).  LC has some cool stuff happening right now (hint: the genius platform), so if you haven't checked their website out lately, give it a whirl! 


The paper I used is from My Mind's Eye, Memory Makers and DCWV.  The flower is from Prima and the twine is from American Crafts.  I added a little strip of fabric and some lace and it was done!


Tags are such a quick and fun form of art and they're always coming in handy to stick on little gifts or treats.  If you're feeling overwhelmed by a 12 x 12 page staring you in the face, try a tag instead!  Another plus to tags is that if you totally botch it, you've only wasted a small amount of paper!  :)
