Gift tags/wallet

 Hi all

I have an enormous amount of tag dies and stamp sets from over the years and decided to have a go at something different so I mixed the sets up.  

I used scraps of Kraft card

String

Watercolour pencils for the vintage ladies

Scraps of cream card for the ladies

Scraps of vintage style scrapbook paper that has been kicking about for an absolute age

Anyhow this is the end result.  I placed a gift card into the card just to show it is a perfect fit.

Lavinia stamps - Moon, Thistle cap mushrooms, Tangled River root corner, Jinx, Rune, Marcie and tree branch

White and black gel pens

Again please excuse the terrible photo

Thank you for visiting my projects from playtime
