I love the fantasy of Steampunk designs and the Steampunk Cameo is one of my favorites. I paired it with Graphic 45's Steampunk Spells and made this tag that would be great for someone graduating high school or college, or maybe someone embarking on a special adventure.
I like long tags, this one is about 8 1/2" x 3 1/2" and when you take into consideration the lace at the bottom and the cut apart card, its really 4" x 11".
I've been asked, "How did you get the wording on that little tag?" That's easy, I print it on a transparency and then adhere with a glue that dries clear. Vellum tape will also work but I like clear glue better.
Here's a closeup of the chippy. I sprayed it all over with Glimmer Mist - black magic first. Then I dabbed on random spots of glue and sprinkled with ebony microbeads just to add some texture and contrast. After that dried I topped the beads with a little glossy accents so that they would stay put!
The best thing about this tag? It took less than an hour to make. I love a quick project!
This week we are celebrating what is probably America's favorite holiday, Thanksgiving. I wish you all a very healthy and happy Thanksgiving. I hope you are able to spend time with those you love.
Thanks for stopping by,
