This is officially the last project I will be making using the Comfort and Joy collection from My Mind's Eye, as I've now worked it down to smithereens. I used the remaining die-cuts on various sized tags and used a few dies to create shapes and sentiments to fill in the space. The three larger tags were die-cut with the Stitched Nested Tags from Tutti Designs, and the last one is actually a die-cut from the pack.
I used different ribbons and trims from my stash on the tags, but I will note that the green seam binding was actually hand dyed using Distress Mica spray following Tim Holtz's instructions shared during his Ranger Live a couple of weeks ago. I used two green sprays and made sure to keep the seam binding scrunched up while it dried so that it would remain crinkled afterwards. It worked out great! I used some Soft Sky seam binding from Stampin' Up! I had on hand but I'd love to create more crinkled ribbon in a variety of colours so I'll probably look to purchase a larger roll of white seam binding.
