Floral Tag-Cards...Retro sketches #103, The Card Concep #4t: Use a Floral Theme

One more post this evening to share two card tags inspired by The Card Concept Challenge #4, where we're invited to use flowers (I am so ready for flowers. NOW!   Time for Spring, please),


and Retro sketches #103, where Wanda has a delightful tag-sized design:

 I created two tag-cards, with my PS Scallop Tag die, paired with the Thanks from the Quotes die.  The left sports MCT's Flower Petals die, while its partner wears a little cluster of flowers from PS Reflections flower dies and stamps...


Thanks so much for dropping by; your visit and comments make my day!

Loving that white one with all the fabulous coloured flowers! Reminds me of the tulips that will eventually boom in my garden :) Darling set of tags. Love the thanks die too!

So pretty, Carol ... love how you've extended the mini-space by going over the edge with those sweet blooms and sentiments! Hugs, Anita :)

Oooooh, all the pretty details!!! Love these oh so much, Carol!! Tag #1: the paper has me drooling, so does the enamel dot in the centre of the gorgeous, stitched, layered bloom! The smaller dot is the perfect compliment, and finishing touch! Tag #2: the delicate pearls added to the centre of the flowers soften up an already soft and pretty card! Love the dimension too that you created by stamping the leaves straight on the tag and popping up the flowers! The "thanks" dies on both, just slightly extending beyond the tag...um, awesome!!!

Awesome tags Carol! Love the 'over-the-edge' elements! Gorgeous colors on the PS stamp tag (I just ordered the coordinating Reflections dies this past week). Fabulous contrast between the gold tones of the flower and the B & W background!

See you in a couple of days pal! Oh, and thanks for sharing these two pretties with us at the Card Concept Challenge!

Oh Carol! What a pair of sweet little beauties!!! Like you, I'm REALLY ready for spring...though even as we speak, we're getting another 4-6" of snow. : ( I've loved that scalloped tag ever since I saw it for the first time on your blog. And you've captured that Springtime feeling with this pair. I just might have to break down and buy the die...especially after seeing what pretties you make with it. Love them!!!!!!!! Bev

Carol...both of your sweet tags are just incredible and I agree with you, I want to see more flowers too. But looks like we will have your adorable tags to hold us over until the flowers start to bloom. They are so sweet and I am sure who ever you send these too will be over the moon with them...so sweet!

I nearly missed a post - EEK! And that would have been a terrible loss for me as your tags are gorgeous! You're a very clever girl, Missy!

Love your tags, the left one especially, in the neutrals. Looks like zentangle art on the background! Thanks so much for joining us at The Card Concept!
