The gold belt was created with gold embossing powder. I used a retired Tim Holtz die to create my pink oval base from kraft core paper.

You can easily do this with dies or punches too. </p><p style="text-align: center;">I used paper from graphic 45 (Natures sketchbook), some Tim Holtz remnant rubs, Tim Holtz tiny clips, and some Tim Holtz ephemera and snippets... I used a few other bits I could find in my stash. </p><p style="text-align: center;">(Also I made these before my sewing machine broke... so hopefully I'll get to make some more soon. I just love that the stitching adds that extra something... Although I found that stitching the inner tag does make it harder to slide in and out... In the future I may just use my stitching stamps on the inner tags)</p><p style="text-align: center;">Enjoy the detail pictures below. </p><p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgm8CFjafrpwJkdHxUWbQJyl6D2sPD7AfHNpnpuSAxBzQY31X_frMHEIE97_W8D50hi9rtfZJM-FhMPtcyd_LkwTh__ftm-6Vyh0M0Mw4QeCXe8jbX6hviYkEkv1A37ektTFrw4rWig3QU/s2048/img_1618192645645.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em;

<div style="text-align: center;">
I started by stamping the hydrant and the dog in Memento ink (Tuxedo Black). I used a scrap of paper to mask off the dogs paws, then stamped the row of chevrons 2x as an accent. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I used Various alcohol markers to color all my stamped images as well as to add my "grass". Then, I used distress oxide inks to create a few clouds. </div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
What do you think? </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
I think I may need to do a cat one some time too...</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Hope this brings you all a smile! </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Happy Crafting!</div>
