 Today I have a photo tutorial showing you how I made a tag using the Cattails & Floral Wheelbarrow dies.



Here is the finished tag, I love how all the pieces work so well together!


I love the texture the Distress Embossing Powder added to the Floral Wheelbarrow.
 The Distress Stickles added that finished touch to highlight the tops of the Cattails.


So let's get started, all the steps are included right on the photos...enjoy!











I hope you enjoyed my tag tutorial and it gave you some inspiration to get creative...after you've finished the blog hop of course!


My secret word is: COMES
