I needed a small container for a little tag I made for a co-worker, Laura. She taught me how to use Ranger Alcohol Inks on slick surfaces. So, I created this little tag for her as I was playing with all the new techniques she taught me. I just loved how blending the blues turned out. I have a 6 X 6 sheet of it now and fear using it, its so pretty.
I remembered the little goodie containers I'd made for Paige last year and I thought it would be a perfect package for the tag. Here's the container I made for the tag…
I was tickled how it turned out and can't wait to give it to her. I hope she likes it.
Here's what it took to create my goodies…
- Tag:
- Stampin Up Tag Punches, both sizes
- Ranger Alcohol Inks
- Clear/Whisper White/Daffodil Delight Cardstocks
- Marvy Medium Daisy Punch
- Tiny Daisy Punch from Michaels Dollar Bins
- Leaves from EK Success Vine Punch
- Container:
- Stampin Up Stack n Store Container
- Dear Lizzy, Neopolitan Paper Pad
- Sage Shadow Cardstock Retired
- Memory Box Vivienne Butterfly Die
- Memory Box Darla Butterfly Die
- 2 3/8 Scallop Circle Punch
- 2 1/2 Circle Punch
- 1/4 and 1/2" strips to go around container
- 1/8" Scor-Pal Tape
- Clear Gems
Oh, I added a touch of White Opal Liquid Pearls to my flower centers. I hope you enjoyed my post today. I found a new flower, a Ribbon Flower, I am so anxious to try. But I don't have the ribbon I need to make it… man, I hate when that happens.
I really appreciate your visits to me and my blog and this big "hug" goes out to all of you!!! You are my inspiration!!!

OMGosh Carla, this is outstanding! I can tell you if Laura doesn't like it, you can scarf it up and send it to me!!!! Absolutely gorgeous INSIDE and OUT!
I love tiny things (you should see my Pinterest board) and so I doubly love the way this turned out. The swirly blue from the alcohol technique is GORGEOUS! All of it gorgeous!
Oh my gosh Carla, both of these are so sweet. I love your tag and would love to know how to do it (how about a tutorial)? But the container is FABULOUS, the butterfly is simply stunning.
I'm sure your co-worker will be so impressed with your talents. Great job!
Totally love the tag and box. Thanks for sharing.
Wow I wished I lived near your store! Then I could come and learn all of these wonderful things! the tag is beautiful - looks like marble!
She will LOVE this! It's beautiful, Carla!
I love both the tag and gift box. The color on the tag is so rich and the flowers are lovely. The box is a work of art.
