Smile Everyday!

Hi bloggers! Happy Saturday to you! I thought I would start off your Saturday with some sweet inspiration featuring some great stamps & dies from The Greeting Farm with a tag by Guest Designer Rachel Parys!

Here’s a bit more information about the process from the designer:

I love making tags, it’s a nice change from doing cards constantly.  I feel like there is a little more freedom since I know I won’t have to try and fit it into an envelope!  The hole at the top allows for all different types of bows, ribbons, twines, etc….

I chose to make layered flowers with the die for some fun dimension.  Crumpling up the paper before stacking the flowers gives it so much life and fullness!  I used brads in the center of these particular flowers, but they also look cute with buttons, pearls, and bling!  The sentiment that comes with this Mini Fleurs set is a great saying, and could be used for just about anything!

When I colored up Cheshire Bean, I spent A LOT of time on her hair.  With this particular type of hair, I worked each separate chunky strand individually.  It takes more time doing it this way, but I find it has the best results with the way her hair is sectioned off.
