Possoms Teapot

Good afternoon, it's another challenge over at CRAFT Challenge again and this week's sponsors are 

       Colour of Love  

For this project, the theme was Not A Card.  As  I also make junk journals, I decided to make a lovely journal card.  I love turning essentially junk items into something pretty.  I used a tag that came with a pet toy, I keep all sorts of things, you would be amazed once you join the junk journal world, the possibilities are endless so you end up keeping all sorts of stuff.  

I firstly backed the store tag with some coffee dyed paper, I make this in batches and it smells lovely ! I used a ordinary glue stick to adhere the coffee paper to the store tag for some nice writing space.  

On the front of tag, I printed out the lovely image from Colour of Love, the possoms are adorable aren't they? I loved colouring this little image.  I then inked the background and inked the edges.  

I simply adhered the topper to the front of the store tag and left the colours of the tag as they went really well with topper. Put the eyelet in and ribbon and added some decorative lace and a bow and some ribbon trim.

All in all a pretty little journal card made from what would have been thrown away.  

I hope you can take a look around and see what things could be used to make pretty tags and journal cards. It's a great way to stretch your creativity.

Happy Crafting x
