Birthday Blog Hop Day Two ~ Karen's Creations

Today's featured blogger is my spookalicious friend, Karen from Karen's Creations.

Hi, I'm Karen from Karen's Creations. I love  creating with paper and have an obsession with making mini albums and journals.     My first thought was to make an album as this is what I love doing, and am sure everyone expected me to make.  So I did the unexpected and created a gift tag instead.

I used a re-purposed vintage layaway tag for my base, and MME's Wicked  paper.  I embellished it with a little touch of burlap, canvas border, a felt spider,  a handcrafted stick pin, vintage black seam binding ribbon, and a unique hand crafted skull button. Can you tell what I made the button out of? 

I am all about the vintage look, and I hope that I captured it in this tag.

Materials I used:

My Mind's Eye Papers

Tim Holtz Black Soot Distressing Ink

Pink Paislee Hocus Pocus Canvas border and skull

Felt Spider

Burlap

Vintage layaway tag

Vintage Poker Chip
