HELLO AGAIN SHAKER TAGS | with Conny

Hi crafty friends, It's Conny here to share my second project using the Hello Again collection. For this project I decided to create gorgeous shaker tags with enormous bows!

Tags have always been one of my favorite things to make as embellishments, they are perfect to add to many projects, like cards, albums, custom gifts, or happy mail. That's just a few things I can think about as I'm writing this. What would you add to these tags too?

Here is an example of a tag added to a card!

They are easy to make, you will need paper and acetate. The papers I chose have beautiful patterns, flowers, and stripes. For the acetate, I used clear acetate and the Gold Dot acetate from the collection. Next, I stitched the acetate to the tag with my sewing machine and left the top open- to add sequins! The sequins are from the Doodlebug Design -Rainbow Pack Sequins! Once I added the sequins, I stitched the top closed with my sewing machine. If you don't have a sewing machine- you can use double-sided tape or hand stitch.

After adding the shakers, I had fun embellishing! I used all Bits & Pieces, Icon Stickers, Shaped Sprinkles, Jewels, and of course the ribbon for the large bows! I can't wait to see what you create using the collection. Give the tags a try, give it to a special someone! Love Conny!
