Happy Birthday Tulle Card

Here is an example using tulle. It comes it different colors, texture, and glitter! I have moved on from different techniques and now trying different things with tulle. It's so fun to use.

Just a quick warning: I like to use the hot glue gun for everything, so when it comes to gluing tulle - be careful. The heat and glue can melt right through it. I always burn myself once or twice no matter how careful I am.

Materials

5.5in x 4.25in pattern card
mulberry paper flowers
large rhinestones
black sticker letters
rhinestone ribbon
small adhesive rhinestones
tulle - regular and glitter

Thank You Card with Chrysanthemum Flowers

Thank You Card with Chrysanthemum Flowers
Hello all!

I have been away for a few days due to my busy schedule, but do not worry! I have a few new cards great for inspiration! I always try to make cards or gift tags specifically for someone or an occasion, but there are times where I just want to make something pretty and just craft!

Here is a Thank You Card with Chrysanthemum Flowers from Wild Orchid Crafts. There are also a few mini roses and cosmo daisies. I used large gem stones and black stickers for the words. I am not adding a material list today because this card was so very simple to make and I am in a hurry.

Thank you for visiting!

Happy Birthday Butterfly Gift Tag

Here is another gift tag. They are very easy to make and this is what I'm stuck with until I gain a little more time. Like I said before, lots of birthdays coming up so I have to be prepared!

Not to sound weird, but I love these pictures. The colors of the gift tag just went so well with the day. I took these pictures right after it rained and it was just perfect. Have you ever looked at someone's art and not understand it? Well, sometimes it doesn't matter what my gift tags really look like... it's the colors that begin to look stunning. I become obsessed with the beauty of nature and how well it complements the beautiful colors of the gift tag.
