November Tag Time

Just sneaking a quick post in here before we delve headlong into December madness. I know there are a few people following the tag project and I wouldn't be forgiven for leaving November out! So without further ado here is this month's tag - it's a shaker window tag...

To make the tag you will need the November Collective and Montage papers from Graphic 45 Children's hour collection, card for a 4"x8" tag, some brown paper to punch leaves, some thick card or foamboard, a small piece of acetate, super sticky tape, co-ordinating ribbon. You will also need a small leaf punch (or small circles or ovals will do!)

To start off, cover your tag using the paper as shown in the pictures below.

Cut out the frame and then cut a thick piece of card or foamboard to go beneath it. Attach the frame to the tag...

Add some leaves punched from russet brown paper - put them in the deep card frame then stick a rectangle of acetate on top and cover with the cut out frame (I used super sticky red tape for this)...

Cut out the boy and some of the decorative strips and apply as shown, layering them up...

Add the 'Leaves are falling...Autumn is calling' quote plus some cut out butterflies...

Finally add some coordinating ribbon and you are done.

Just one more tag to go this year! See you in December!
