Vintage & Shabby Altered Tags

I love Sheet 227 which was recently released. The colors are serene, softly muted, and work well with any color palette. I covered shipping tags with various pattern papers that had been torn in strips and distressed with ink. I resized and printed hybrid images Old Book 01 and Old Book 03 and tucked them behind the collage image and trimmed the book image at the top of the tag. Bits of vintage appliqué flowers, seam binding ribbon and buttons were added as embellishments.
