Patriotic Tag

Candice Windham

To celebrate Independence Day, with a vintage look, I created this tag for the cover of my July mini-album, but you could use it for any number of occasions around the 4th of July holiday. The tag is all made of paper and card stock, but I was able to give it a convincing vintage metal look with the application of various distressing inks. I started with Sizzix / Tim Holtz Gadget Gears dies, and added the Rosie the Riveter stamp artwork. The patriotic sentiment was crafted using the Duetica Floot font to add that summer flag-waving feeling.
