To create…
1 Fold a 21x22cm sheet of white cardstock to create a side-fold card blank. Attach a 22×10.5cm piece of bronze cardstock to the card front using double-sided tape.
2 To create the tag, cover a 12×4.5cm piece of scrap cardstock using the fabric from a men’s tie. Stitch the tag into place as shown.
3Add a metal embellishment to the top and bottom of the tag, and thread a tassel through the base.
4 Create two Suffolk Puffs, one from an old sewing pattern and the other using the tie fabric. Sew buttons to the centre of the Suffolk Puffs, and stitch onto the tag, as shown using a needle and thread.
5 Stamp the Stampin’ Up! ‘Love’ sentiment stamp directly onto the bronze cardstock using a Sepia Ranger Archival inkpad.
