FabScraps French Heritage Collection
(Get your collection HERE)
FabScraps newest collection, French Heritage, is dripping with charm, warmth and spectacular florals. I'd also have to say that the accompanying chippies are rather amazing as well. I love peacocks, they are classic elegance as well.
Below is the paper collection samples.

Instructions
1.
Background Preparation:
2.
Cut a cardboard
rectangle to the desired size of your tag.
I like to make my tags with a cardboard base if I am adding a lot of
embellishments.
3.
Rip the edge of the
cardboard so that some of the corrugation is showing.
4.
Paint the corrugated
section or emboss with gold. I did both
– painted with gold, then sprinkled gold embossing powder here and there. Heat
set.
5.
Using FabScraps French
Heritage Collection Autumn Floral 2 C63004 cover cardboard - leaving corrugation section showing. Glue
down.
6.
Stencil on the paper
as desired. I used gold embossing
powder.
7.
Glue strip of bead
trim to the bottom of tag.
8.
Embelishments:
9.
Fussy cut flowers
from FabScraps French Heritage –Autumn
Floral C63003. Adhere to cardboard to
give them dimension and glue to front of tag.
10.
Fussy cut another
flower and glue to the back of the tag, at the top.
11.
Cut a strip of tulle
approx 8 inches long. Fold in half so
that you now have a 4 inch piece. Fan it out and adhere to the back of the tag. Tricks to adhering tulle or trim to the back of a tag: glue the
tulle down, then cut some paper to glue over it. The paper helps hold the tulle
in place and secure it.
12.
Chipboard Preparation:
13.
FabScraps French
Heritage Chipboard Peacock DC63013 – paint with gold acrylic.
14.
Coat with gold
embossing powder and top with glitter before heat setting. Once you heat set, the glitter will stick.
15.
Glue Peacock to the
tag.
