Tag or Bookmark? ft. Kate Hadfield Designs


 

                                                                                       


 Tag or bookmark...or both!  Hello everyone.  Hope everyone is well and looking forward to springtime!  Today I’m bringing you a cute project... a 2 for!  I’ve used products from


Kate Hadfield Designs

Animal Pals-Wolves Digital Stamp Set  


Let me show you how I this fun project!

 

                                                                                    


I printed out my images onto white card stock.  I also created a sentiment.

 

 

I colored the moon very simply using a 2 color blend.  Also I knew that I was going to fussy

cutting the wolf and moon right along the outline, so it didn’t matter that I went outside the

lines with my coloring.

 

 

I worked at coloring the wolf and kept adding layers until I was happy with the blends

Copic markers used:  Y11, Y21, W0, W1, W2, W3, W5, C3, C5, 100

 



 

I then fussy cut the 2 images out and edged them with a black marker.

 

   This was one of those projects where I did not pick out my background paper until last.  But

I found a piece of 12” x 12” paper with a night sky on it.  I used a tag die to cut it out.  You could

cut another tag out of white paper to back it with.  My paper was double-sided so I didn’t bother. I applied an eyelet and threaded some jute twine through it.  I inked the edges with a dark blue Copic marker.  Along the bottom I used a Q-tip to add some sticky glue.  I didn’t do this to cover it.  I swiped it back and forth so nothing is really solid.  When it was almost dry, I laid some back foil over it.  This worked out quite well and I liked the effect.

 

 

As I was laying out my project I realized I could cut one end of the tag off.  I did this after I colored the tag with a Copic marker.  I adhered the tag first, then the wolf, then the moon.  For embellishments I used some twinkle sequins and then I added some diamond Stickles to the sky for stars.  And that finished my tag/bookmark.



 How fun would it be to gift a book and use this tag/bookmark…first as the tag, then it could be kept as a book mark!  I hope I’ve inspired you today to create a project with a double use!  You can find this digital stamp set and many more at
