Totally Tags n' ATC's

Good morning, Suzanne of Cricut Crafting Grammy. We are back on Thursdays to explore different themes, elements, techniques or embellishments. This week "Anything Goes"   on our tags and ATC's. There is no restriction on what tools are used to create these tags or ATC's. It could be a die cut machine, punches, stamps, etc. The sky is the limit. However if the Design Team uses Digis or SVG's they will be from Paper Crafting World. As a side note, if you don't know what an ATC card is, we have a definition at the bottom of our post.

I hope you will join us each Thursday here at My Paper Crafting for 

Totally Tags n' ATC's.

I used a  Prima doll stamp and scraps  for my tag.  I have just fallen in love with these stamps and am looking forward to the next release.  I use scraps for the dresses and background.  Flowers and ribbon from my stash.  Also added pearls and a MS punch.
