Graduation Tag (M69)

This is a great way to use up scraps of paper (most of the paper I used was wallpaper from old books)


1. Cut cardstock into 10 1/2" x 7". Score at 3 1/2" and 7 1/2" and fold, making a "hill" for the first fold from the left and a "valley" for the second fold.
2. When tags are complete, punch holes at the top of each one and attach ribbon and fibers

First Tag:
1. Cover tag with black patterned paper, then cream handwriting paper, cut a little short at the bottom.
2. Ink edges of tan textured paper with black ink, and attach to gold metallic paper with torn bottom
3. Attach to tag with foam tape
4. Cut a square from black linen cardstock, mount to heavier cardstock, and attach a small piece of black cardstock to bottom on an angle to simulate the "sides" of the cap
5. Attach a gold tassel using a black brad (my tassel was a really bright gold, so I sponged it with black ink to tone it down)
6. Color a die-cut label holder with gold leafing pen and rub with black ink to antique
7. Print text on parchment, attach to the back of the label holder, and attach to the tag with brads
   
   

Second Tag:
1. Cover with black patterned paper, then with black and white printed paper, cutting the left edge short
2. Attach a small strip of black and white diamond paper
3. Print text on parchment, ink edges and attach to gold metallic paper
4. Attach piece to tag with foam tape

Third Tag:
1. Cover with beige/brown striped paper
2. Attach a square of darker brown paper to the bottom, attaching only at the sides and bottom, to make a pocket (can put check, cash or gift card inside)
3. Print text on parchment, attach to decorative paper with brads and tape to pocket
