Tag Fun And One More Cough, Cough, Maple Leaf...


This week's CAS-ual Fridays challenge is to have an element of your card going over the edge.  I combined it with this week's JAI  and Wee Memories challenge of making a tag. I haven't made a tag forever so it was a perfect excuse to have some fun :)

I had this maple leaf in my "left over box" so I decided to add it to the tag as it was an easy shoe in for going over the edge on this fun, small sized tag pallet. Some fun mixing of fall colours and my job was done.  Not sure this qualifies as a CAS tag, but I had fun making it none-the-less.

Now it's off to rake the maple leaves off my lawn as they are falling profusely  - penance for posting so many over the past month or so LOL!

Thanks to popping by today :)

Love it Marisa! It wouldn't be Fall or a visit to Rosemary Reflections without a Maple leaf thrown in here and there. Thanks for "leave-ing" it in (ba-da-bum-bah...) Ok, ok...BAD...
Your tag looks fab...the colors look awesome and I love the addition of the raffia bow. Keep those Maples comin' darlin'!! ♥♥♥

Oh boy, a leaf, twine, crimped paper and fall colors...YUM! It doesn't get any better than this...well, when you wrap it up on a cute little tag it does! Well done, my friend! I, for one, would love to see maple leaves all year 'round! Does it count that my mom is Canadian?! :-)

Love your maple leaf tag...well, it is the star of the show. Sorry you have to rake those leaves because that means the beautiful trees will soon be bare.
