Fresh & Fruity Tags with Dawn

Hey, friends!  Dawn here!  I’ve been painting a series of fruit paintings in my studio the last couple of weeks, so I’ve had lemons on the brain.  Plus, I was so inspired by a tag set that Betsy shared recently, AND I’ve been needing some birthday gift tags so I decided to combine all of that inspiration into this project!  I wanted to make my own set of tags that felt really citrusy and juicy colored and these are the result!  I love how they turned out!

I used an array of products to make them, starting with the Four Square Tags Die and the Four Square Birthday Tags Stamps & Dies.  The other main component on all of them, was the Lemon Blossom stamps and dies…..I have always loved that set so much!  Even just the little flowers and leaves in this set are so versatile.  For big impact on sentiments, I used the Make a Wish die, the Simply Bold For You die and the It’s Your Day die.

I chose my color scheme and then just mixed and matched elements on each tag, trying to incorporate as many of the colors from the palette as I could onto each tag.  The color variety on each one, makes them very detailed and interesting and FUN!

I also layered a second tag behind each one, so I have a spot to write the to/from info or to jot a note to the recipient.

Hope this big punch of summer color has given you some major inspiration to get out your supplies and create!

Happy making!
