Fly Away with Me Tag with Katelyn Grosart

Hey Southern Ridge Trading Company fans, Katelyn here. For today's post, I'm excited to share with you my Fly Away with Me Tag that's perfect to give to that special someone in your life.  My Fly Away with Me Tag features a variety of our chipboard pieces. You'll want to read below as I share with you how to embellish the chipboard pieces for my Fly Away with Me Tag at home.


To start, take one of the Fine Clock Face's out of the package. Apply a coat of Emboss It Ink to the clock face. Sprinkle Burnt Copper Leaves Embossing Powder over the entire surface of the clock. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. If the embossing powder didn't completely cover the clock, repeat the previous steps in the areas that need more embossing powder.


Next, you'll need a Barbed Wire Circle Frame - Small. Apply a coat of Emboss It Ink to the frame. Sprinkle Rocky Road Baked Texture Embossing Powder over the entire surface of the frame. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. If the embossing powder didn't completely cover the frame, repeat the previous steps in the areas that need more embossing powder.


From the Med. Gears, choose one of the gears. Apply a coat of Emboss It Ink to the gear. Sprinkle Hammered Metal Embossing Powder over the entire surface of the gear. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. 


Choose three small gears and two medium sized gears from the Mini Wood Gears. Apply a coat of Emboss It Ink to each of the gears. Sprinkle Rocky Road Baked Texture Embossing Powder over the entire surface of the gears. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. 


Cut apart one of the Scroll Borders. Blend Ground Espresso Distress Ink with a blending tool and foam onto the entire surface of both of the scroll pieces. 


The last chipboard piece you need is one Vintage Scroll Key. Apply two coats of Hickory Smoke Distress Paint to the key. Once the paint has dried, rub Black Soot Distress Crayon along the edges of the key.


Once all the patterned papers have been layered all together, I then added the two scroll border pieces diagonally on the tag. Adhere the clock face and gear together. Once they've been adhered, add your sentiment to the middle of the gear. Adhere the barbed wire circle frame overtop of the saying.


To finish around the frame, adhere two stamps, a hot air balloon and the vintage scroll key. Adhere three small gears in the top left of the tag and two small gears in the bottom right of the tag.


To finish off the tag, add a burgundy bow at the top of the tag.
