ever tried to pick blackberries? It requires a certain degree of caution.
Most blackberry bushes do NOT want to share.

| YUM. |
I make lots of tags, but usually not big ones like these--generally
it's little ones, to fit inside other projects (such as the All Aboard
book, HERE and HERE, or the Sew Sweet book).
These were simple to make, and I'm thinking, why not use them
instead of a card? It's not a card shape, but wouldn't it be fun to
find a big embellished tag inside an envelope?

Starbird tag:
Stampotique Designer's Challenge--Twin Images
Stampavie and more--something with wings
Crafty Sentiments--use bright colours

Distress Inks, plus Jet Black StazOn) "bug" is bee stamped along
the seam binding
I'm feeling a little distracted today . . . as if I misplaced my
concentration . . . let me know if you find it, okay?
Hi Trisha! Those berries are HUGE! They look yummy too. You got my mouth watering. Your tags are really great. I love making tags, but I never know quite what to do with them when I do.

ReplyDeleteWe lived in NW Arkansas for several years and I grew blackberries on a chain link fence! The berries were easier to pick, but boy do I hear you! Both tags are wonderful! Love those backgrounds! Enjoy the weekend!
ReplyDeleteLovely tags, I had no idea blackberry bushes were thorny. I'll bet that is why they are so expensive too!
ReplyDeleteMmm blackberries! Yum!
