Tag book mini journal

Yesterday I had the most amazing delivery from Sizzix of products to play with and so I felt obliged to spend the afternoon in the basement cutting and sticking.

I made a little tag book in art journal style with as much texture as a little tag book could take and here it is.



To cut my tag book I folded the card so it was just slightly narrower than the tag on an Alterations tag and bookplates die, then once cut it retained it's folds. 

I painted the background with water colours and added texture with some paste, then some ink splats before stamping with some background stamps by MSB.  I also used their Family Tree stamp set.

The heart is an absolutely gorgeous die called Heart Stem Leaves and I took a piece of already textured paper out of my left-overs stash and cut it then added colour with Gelatos and some highlight with Inka Gold. 




The Sizzix dies I used on this project are Alterations Tag and Bookplates # 656938
and Heart Stem and Leaves  # 657691
