Tag it! at Cardz 4 Guyz

This week at Cardz 4 Guyz our theme is Tag it! so we would like to see your work feature a tag or tags.

I decided to have the tag on the inside of my card, by making a gatefold card with a twist - you can find detailed instructions at Going Buggy. I added a rather lovely metal embellishment to the front of the card - I think it originally came from The Bead Emporium but it's been sitting in my stash for years waiting for the perfect moment to use it.




All the elements apart from the metal trim and brads came from the K & Company Blue Awning collection - a beautiful set of designs that, although many floral designs are included, is in a strong blue/green/cream colour palette perfect for masculine cards. I bought mine many years ago and apart from about half of the 12 x 12 pad have very little left now - sadly it is discontinued but it's done me sterling service over the years.

I am sharing this with Allsorts Challenge - Metal and/or Charms

This is certainly impressive - fab colours too! A perfect guy card. I would be too scared to try and make it, it looks to complicated for me! You are very clever! xxx
