I used PTI's Basic Bookmark #2 die to cut out my tag, and then stenciled softly using Smoky Slate ink and PTI's Garden Gate stencil. I added a die cut leaf branch from PTI's Songbird set in Basic Gray cardstock and flowers from PTI's Forget Me Not set, stamped in Cool Caribbean ink. The sentiment is from PTI's Choose Joy set. A few light blue sequins and a tassel from white and turquoise embroidery floss finished up my tag/bookmark. I also added some shimmer to the flowers that you can see better in this closeup:
