I used labels from a special printer that my hospital used to use. the bottom part of the sticker is coated and the ink didn't really take on it, but I think it is a cool look anyway. I used a garage sale tag (I inked the string), a page fastener (large brad) and reinforcements for the scalloped bottom, it is mounted on rose red paper tone on tone with by definition, which is then mounted to the card.
i took a plain white facial tissue and pressed down frimly on the labels to soak up the excess ink and the image totally took to the tissue...so cool. I mounted that tissue to CS with modpodge and covered in 3 more coats and I will make and upload a card with that tomorrow.

You are amazingly creative! I still haven't done this challenge but may use your reinforcer and label idea. Can't wait to see your tissue card.

I'm always looking for ideas What a cool way to make a scalloped border with reinforcements and I love the separated, continuous look of the stickers. Thanks for the idea.
