Hearts~ You pull my heart strings


You pull my heart strings
Oh my goodness, I really got carried away with this heart challenge.
Here goes:
Tags from jeans that my friend Tammy in CA sent me. Perfect.
Heart made from torn paper towel and sewn. (I had great success last time when I made a paper rose.)
The tags had the long red threads hanging down. That was my inspiration.
Added little plastic tags I recently found while thrifting. (Wahoot)
The rest is stamping, cutout hearts from scraps of paper on my worktable,
and a red ribbon. Nothing elaborate, but lots of fun!

Thank you everyone for you kind comments. I think this challenge has really brought out an extra level of creativity in tags. They are truly beautiful. I so enjoy looking at them.
Hugs.

  3. Maybe simple individual items, but together they've made an elaborate and beautiful tag.
