“Hello all!
I love to add all the dimensions when I create tags, but this can make it somewhat difficult (sometimes impossible) to write on the back of them.
So, why not make a quick and easy pocket to store a sentiment?
I started by picking what papers to use, and of course, I had to use the Curiouser & Curiouser collection because I love it to bits.
I die-cut the tag shape using the Large Die set from Graphic 45 and adhered it to the front of the tag. Then, I cut the pieces I needed.
I adhered the larger piece of patterned paper using foam adhesive to the front of the tag. Then, I took the smaller piece of patterned paper, rounded the bottom corner (totally optional), and used a 1” circle punch to create a notch at the top of the pocket. I used ⅛ “double-sided tape to adhere the pocket in place.
Then I decorated the front of the tag to my heart’s desire – I used plenty of foam tape, chipboard, and all sorts cause now I don’t need to worry about the ability to write a message on the back.
I decorated the smaller tag (on which to write the message) using a cutout from one of the 12×12 papers and added ribbon to finish the look.
Happy crafting.” ~Anna

I have so enjoyed reading your instructions for these interesting and beautiful tags…seemed as though you were right in the room with me…very personable yet loaded with tons of information. I appreciated all the photos. I, too, enjoy creating with layers and dimension…that pocket on the back is a great idea. Thank you!
