Keepsake Tags Tutorial | Always & Forever Collection

by Teresa Cruz aka Andor Violeta


“Some projects are much more than paper and glue—they become treasured memories.

Today I’m sharing the keepsake tags I created for my son’s Profession of Faith. I wanted to design something elegant, meaningful and timeless that family and friends could keep as a reminder of this very special day.

For this project I used the beautiful Always & Forever collection by Graphic 45. Its soft colours, classic patterns and elegant designs were the perfect choice to celebrate such a meaningful occasion.

Each tag features a personal photo, layered embellishments, delicate golden accents, pearls and a dimensional church embellishment, finished with a soft fabric graphic 45 ribbon for an elegant touch.

As a Graphic 45 Brand Ambassador, it is always a joy to create meaningful projects using these beautiful collections.

I have also created a full step-by-step tutorial, where I show exactly how these keepsake tags came together. They are perfect for Profession of Faith celebrations, First Communions, Baptisms or any special occasion.

I hope this project inspires you to preserve your own precious memories through handmade creations.

Thank you so much for stopping by!

Craft Tip:

One handmade tag can do so much more than decorate a gift! Start with a sturdy Graphic 45 Regular Ivory Tag, then personalize it with a favorite photo, meaningful sentiment, layered die cuts, ribbon, pearls, or dimensional embellishments. By simply changing the papers, colors, and embellishments, you can recreate this same design for birthdays, weddings, holiday gifts, teacher appreciation, bridal showers, baby showers, or scrapbook embellishments. It’s a wonderful way to stretch your supplies while creating projects that feel uniquely personal every time.
