French Bow Shimmer tag

Let's break down how to create this fun tag. First off, I took my white cardstock and cut out a tag.Sizzix Movers & Shapers Die - Tag & Tie By the way, this die is on sale for $11.99 on Sizzix.com. LOVE this die! Then I embossed it with Sizzix Textured Impressions Embossing Folders 2PK - Polka Dots & Starflowers Set. When using dies, in the Big Shot all you need is a pair of Standard Cutting Pads. Make a sandwich with your die and paper between the cutting pads and roll them through your Sizzix Big Shot machine.

Then I sprayed it with Glimer Mist-polka dot pink.

Now it is all shimmery!

I LOVE how it shimmers. pretty cool!

So I used this bow die: Sizzix Bigz Die - French Bow I cut all the layers that the die makes. I cut off the tails and then just formed the bow parts. I reattach the tails later.

But first you need to assemble both bows.

Then I layered them. By cutting off the tails, I also was able to layer them and curl them up and then reposition them.

Now put on a big heart. I love this one because it isn't perfect! Sizzix Bigz Die - Hearts #4. I really wanted it to pop off the tag, so I layered my 3D Foam Squares. Gave it huge depth.
