Hello everybody!  Laura here with you today to share some ideas for the NEW Chipboard/Acrylic Tags from Clear Scraps!

The first tag is the new Chipboard Scallop Tags.  These come in a pack of 4 so you can really get creative!  I covered these with patterned paper, layered paper strips, stickers, using foam tape to create dimension.

Next up–NEW acrylic tags too!  The Acrylic Rounded Tags are really fun to play with!  You could leave them clear and just use paper.  You could stamp on them with a Staz-On type ink.  Here I used alcohol inks.

This started by "pouncing" on the acrylic tag using a felt pad soaked with alcohol ink in blue.

With another felt pad, I layered in some fuchsia.  I wanted something to "frame" the acrylic tags.

So I used a white paint marker that I ran around each edge to give it a little "extra" something.

One of the tricks working with the acrylic tags–use the same "base" piece (note the paper across the middle) and work within that space so you have the same "look" on both sides.  Since it's see through you need to keep that in mind.  If you add an element like the tag piece I did along the top edge–make sure you do that on BOTH sides so nothing shows through.

A couple of cardstock framed mats are picture ready on this tag!

The best part–decorating a box and filling it up with the tags you've created!  And if you decide you want more in it–just create a few more tags!
