Alice Tags Swap

Well, I finally got mine finished and sent off! This was my first try at making tags and I had a great time making them.

I tried to use everything that I have here at home rather than going out to buy new stuff to make them. With the exception of the tags themselves and the 'I'm Late' clock, everything came from my stash of stuff.

Take a look...

The Queen of Hearts ~~

Through the Looking Glass ~~
The silver backing is from a Rolo piece of candy that I ate just for this project.

Cheshire Cat ~~

Alice ~~
***
I'm Late!

Garden of Live Flowers

The backs of the tags ~~

The paper I printed off with my printer and then tea-dyed. The cat background is those silk leaves that we all have in our homes. I wanted him to look primitive and the picture that came to mind is the one where he is in the tree and he is invisible and all you see is his smile. The flower is a leather flower that who knows where it came from and I sewed the beads on it and glued a vintage button in the center. The heart is a wooden heart from a collection of wooden hearts I have and I glittered it up and added a few beads to the top and glued on a floral gold heart button. Through the Looking Glass is an actual mirror and I sewed beads around it.

FUn, Fun, Fun!
