Fall Flowers Hang Tags

Since Autumn is one of my two favorite seasons of the year, the other being Spring, I always enjoy creating fall-themed art projects. And since I'm trying to create more and more sets when I create hangtags, I created this fall-themed hangtag set. I'm also entering this in the City Crafter Challenge Blog's Autumn Leaves Falling Challenge. This challenge required us to create any project using the colors of Autumn Leaves. I've definitely used some of my favorite fall colors!

Fall Flowers Altered Tags

This set of four tags all started out plain, and I used my usual grungy sauce mix to grungy them up. Then I used a doily-patterned rubber stamp to stamp on the doily texture using yellow-gold ink. Next I picked out fabric  sunflower-type flowers in 2 shades of orange and I attached one to each hangtag using a brown metal button fastener. Then I chose four dimensional stickers, each with its own word, and adhered one to the bottom of each hangtag. All that was left after that was to finish each of the hangtags off with a gold organdy ribbon.

I love the colors of Autumn, don't you?!
