I've always enjoyed exchanging cards and gifts for Valentine's Day. We try to make our Valentine's Day exchanges special by coming up with unique Valentine's. One year we did
this. (They didn't look quite as good as hers, but we tried). I am hoping to try
this,
this,
this, and
this in the future (maybe this year).
I joined a few Valentine swaps. As I said, I love exchanging cards and gifts for Valentine's Day. I joined Natalea's
Valentine Tag Swap.

For these tags, I used pink polka dotted fabric as the base. I added glittery, paper roses and a coffee stained tag with vintage French paper. I also used some of the the pink polka dot netting ribbon from
Heather's shop.
I stamped a red heart onto the tag and added a rhinestone to each one.


The heart stamp I used was the same one I used for
the Alice in Wonderland tags I made a few months ago. (The stamp is from a
Close to My Heart set, which I love).


I sent along one of my new
Moo cards to each participant:


Here they are wrapped and ready to go:


Check out the tags I received in return
here and
here on Natalea's blog.
This one is one of my favorites.
These are so cute. I love the polka dot fabric and ribbon.

Oh I am way excited that your Valentine tag swap is the same one as mine. I love your tags and can't wait to get one. I tell you what, I counted 19 different pieces on each one of my 20 tags that I did. I am going to post them soon. Come say hi and check out my giveaway going on in honor of Valentine's day and my 200th follower.
ReplyDeletelove these! i have that same little hearts card on the bottom photo. i took my little sweetpea to the antique shop on her bday so she could pick out a "treasure." she picked out that set of little vintage "hearts" cards. too cute! xoxo
ReplyDeleteYour tags turned out so pretty, Jessica! I'm sure your swap partners will be thrilled!
ReplyDeleteHugs,

Hi Jessica, I got my valentine tags in the mail this morning and I was so very tickled to get one of yours. It is amongst my favorites. It is just so fun looking at the details of each one of them. Thanks for entering my giveaway and becoming a follower.
ReplyDeleteYour tags are so fun! I am totally in awe of the amazing crafts you get done when you have three girls to keep up with! Everyone tells me I'll have no time for crafting after this little comes. I think I'd rather let the laundry slide than give up making stuff! :)
ReplyDeleteReally pretty as always Jessica, I like how the little red crystal on the heart really gives it some extra cuteness. Nice how you always have just the right amount of detail.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful tags! I love the glitter on the flowers. The polka dots are perfect!!! xo
ReplyDeleteAs usual, you have created absolutely fabulous tags!
ReplyDeleteWhat sweet polka dots! They are just delightful with the roses.
ReplyDeletethe tags look lovely.. I especially like the last piece as it has such a Alice in Wonderland-ish flair even though its not. I;m a sucker for using book pages in crafts. I'm not a big pink fan, I'm not a girly girl but it does all look lovely.
ReplyDeleteI still haven't finished your craft swap but I'm hoping to get it finished this week as M is working later tomorrow night so that means i can craft while I watch a terrible movie. that's my plan anyway.
tank you for stopping by my blog to comment. now i get to see your beautiful talent. i love altered art too but have drifted away from it and started sewing more. hope to spend some time looking through your blog. thanks again
