The Play Date Cafe #100

So I'm back today with my 2nd showing for The Play Date Cafe, which was actually my first idea when I saw the colours for this week.

So, again I have used these beautiful autumn colours to create another Christmas offering, this time a tag.  I began by cutting two tags, and carefully measuring and cutting a corresponding 'window' in both sides. The stamping and stitching detail were all attended to at this point.

 ** Edited to add: This tag was chosen as a Fab 4 **

The 3D origami stars were made and attached to the thread, and I used a little dimensional magic just to ensure they didn't slide around.

I used 3D mounting tape to adhere the two tag layers together, offering a little bit of depth and protection to the stars.  Finally I punched two holes and tied a piece of ribbon through them.

Thanks for visiting :)
