Hi! I’m here for the 3rd day of the LOVE TAGplorations event. The event will last for 7 days, with the final day being Valentine’s Day. The STAMPlorations Girls will be showcasing love-themed or Valentine’s Day tags or projects which include tags. You can play along too!
I have a non-traditional Valentine’s Day tag to share with you today. I used some fabulous dark blue cardstock that I bought at a shop in my mother’s hometown of Dunoon, Scotland. I’d like to thank Valerie of Coleman Cards & Crafts for the excellent selection of lovely heavyweight cardstock that she keeps in stock.
I heat embossed in white, using my new Zen Hearts ARTplorations stencil.
To make the top of my tag, I did some partial die cutting using the CUTplorations Luggage Tags Nesting Dies.
I finished by fussy cutting out the rest of the heart and adding some blue and white twine.
I had a lot of fun making this tagged card! Make sure you stop by and check out the STAMPlorations Girls’ superb creations!
Thanks for stopping by!
Grace & Peace,
Melissa

Thanks! I love it too! It is some blue cardstock that I bought in my mother’s hometown, I believe. West Coast Scotland. I will try to find out. 🙂 I love it too and will most likely run out of it before I get back.

Of course, it had to come from Europe. 😂 It’ll be too expensive to get it shipped to 🇨🇦.. ☹️

I’ll see what I can find out. I’m moving to Maine in April and want to be able to get more of this. Maybe there will be a business that will carry it on our side of the pond! 🙂

Better cost-wise, but will still be expensive to ship to 🇨🇦. If only they are sold on Amazon. 😉

This tag turned out so beautiful. I have never used a stencil for heat embossing – will have to give that a try.
