I've shared this before, but I love to keep a basket of finished cards and
tags on a shelf in my craft room so that I can sift through and grab one at a
moment’s notice. I keep cards and tags of all kinds—birthday, wedding, holiday,
etc—but the type I grab for the most are generic ones that I can give to a
friend to let her know that I’m thinking about her, or that I just want to tell
her “hello”.
Since I never seem to have enough of those on hand, I
decided to make a set of “hello” tags that I can attach to little gifts or
flowers when I want to brighten a friend’s day. I was so excited to use the
Phone Home Die—I
fell in love with it the moment I saw it. I love the little rotary phone and
“hello” sentiment in the script font. Super cute!
For these tags I used a few of the new Dots & Stripes8x8 Paper Pads.
I cut my tags from the Neutrals pad using the Designer Tag Set. I love the look
of the kraft paper! Then I used the white grid paper from the Neutrals pad to
cut my phone shapes, which adds some nice contrast to the kraft. To add some
color to my tags I die cut the remaining elements from the Spring and Brights
8x8 pads in some happy spring colors.
I love the variety of colors available in the Dots &
Stripes collection. It was easy to find exactly what I needed for this project.
These little tags would make a great gift as a set, or can be added
individually to gifts or treats for friends.
