A favour for a friend

My real good friend of almost 40 years needed a special 'acceptance' for a family members wedding. I made a tag, a simple box and lined it with tissue. She wanted 'something special to keep'. I hope this fits the bill........................................

I promise I won't show another tag tomorrow, lol, but I suppose I've enjoyed the process, hence the run on them.


The above close up shows the suede paper heart, embossed with the fantastic 'Cuttlebug'. Butterflies are from Crafty Individuals. They do fantastic little books crammed full of gorgeous images, and at less than £4 are excellent value.

I just love the sentiment..........

What a delilghtfully elegant and truly original idea it is certainly something that will be treasured. I love your idea of wrapping the tag in tissue, it really adds to the mystery before the final treasure is seen. Have you ever thought about doing a tutorial for this kind of project (please !!!!).
I am enjoying, sooo much, looking at your beautiful blog and fantastic inspirations.
THANK YOU for sharing your treasures with us.
