Autumn Friend Shaker Tag


 I was planning to make a card using the autumn image in the Dandelion Designs 'seasons' stamp set, but the image was too small so I decided to use it on a tag.  I paired it with the Cutter Bee leaf die that I also purchased at HM Ben Franklin Crafts.  I die cut the leaf from the front of the tag (Little B tag die set) which was made from a sheet of Lawn Fawn plaid card stock. The girl in a kimono was colored with Copic pens and fussy cut. The sentiment also came in the DD stamp set.
 I cut two more tag shapes...one from tan card stock and another from printed origami paper.  These were attached to the back of the tag front after it was made into a shaker element and filled with tiny leaf sequins.  For the final fall touch I added raffia ties so the tags can be attached to some holiday goodies.  When I receive my Vippies 2018 calendars, I will add them to these tags so the recipients will have an additional gift after the goodies are eaten.  I love a gift within a gift...don't you?

Your tags are really awesome. Perfect for the upcoming Fall season. The raffia goes really well with your Fall theme too.

Your shaker calendar tags are a great idea Lynn. Thanks for sharing where you get them, I'll need to get some cakebdars for myself. Your image is so sweet and I love that Lawn Fawn paper pack you're showing. Thanks for the inspiration!
