Folding Tag Card Tutorial

Carefully place
I've had several sweet friends ask for instructions to the card I made for Wendy's birthday, so here they are:
I cut a strip 3 x 12 - the width is going to depend on your tag.  I used a Papertrey Ink Die, I think Stampin Up has a Tag Die that is a little wider and several other companies dies are smaller/larger - just measure the width of yours.
Scored at 3, 4 1/2, 6, 7 1/2 and 9




                                                            

Folded on score lines, side view - front and back panels a little longer than middle sections
Carefully place die with top of die at the top of folded tag(longer front and back as top) in Cuttlebug/Vagabond/Sizzix.  I had to run it thru several times to cut thru all layers
Run a ribbon down back and up to the front
Added designer paper panels to each section which have been cut approximately 2 x 1 3/8 (length will depend on your tag size, but width will be 1 3/8)
Panels can be stamped on or embellishments add to it.  Here is this finished card
