Playing Tag

The extremely creative Jackie Peters had a heart tag tutorial on her blog recently and early last week I made several.  They were so fun to do - quick and easy.  I'll be making more today.
I also took Jackie's "shrink" tag class at Paper Crown last week.  We made four little shrinky-dink items and then attached them to Valentine-themed tags.  I haven't done shrinky-dinks since...oh, gosh, maybe grade school.  It was kind of scary to watch the plastic curl and wonder if you were just going to end up with a little hard ball, but Jackie guided us through it and all turned out nicely.  Here are my finished tags.
I'll probably share two of these with friends or family, but the little girl with the turquoise heart is staying with me!
