Debuting the Hollyhock Garden Collection with Heartfelt Creations...

Good morning friends and welcome!  This morning Heartfelt Creations is introducing the brand new Hollyhock Garden Collection!   This week I chose to make a tag using these lovely flowers and I hope you enjoy it.  You can find all the details of my tag in the Heartfelt Creations Gallery!


The finished size of my tage is 4" X 6".  Using the Album Tags and Accents Die cut a tag from a piece of the Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper.  Place the tag into the Embossing folder and run through a die cut machine.  

Using a piece of Sheet 12B cut one of the scalloped shaped dies and then cut a smaller shaped piece using one of the 6" X 6" panels on Sheet 10A.  Glue the two pieces together and then adhere to tag using dimensional tape.

Stamp the flowers onto Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper using Memento New Sprout ink.  Color the center of the petals with New Sprout and the outer edges using Archival Magenta Hue.  I colored front and back of the flowers.  Cut out with coordinating dies.  Lay onto the shaping mold and spritz with water then run through the die cut machine.  Add a bit more shaping with the Deluxe Flower Shaping Kit and allow to dry.  Add the Prills to the center of the flowers and allow to dry.

Stamp the Hollyhock Stems and Blooms onto Deluxe Flower Shaping Paper using Fern Green ink.  Color with Leaf Green ink and edge with a bit of Fern Green to add a bit of dimension.  Glue to the shaped medallion piece and decide on placement of flowers and glue them down using hot glue.

Stamp the sentiment with Magenta Hue and cut out using the Arrows and Banners die.  Edge with Magenta Hue ink and use dimensional tape to adhere to the front of the tag.

Add glitter to the flowers using a Hydra Sponge and Designer Dries Clear Adhesive.  Allow the glitter to dry.

Punch a hole in the top of the tag and tie the ribbon through and the tag is ready to go.

Oh, my goodness, look at those gorgeous hollyhocks growing up the side of your tag! Exquisite! Love the embossed background, too. Your tags are collectors items. I'll bet the recipients keep every one of them!
