• apply Prima Marketing Modeling Paste through the ARTplorations Oh my Stars! stencil
• tear a strip of paper and cut a doily using the CottageCutz Floral Doily from the same patterned paper pad  
• use the Paper Distresser on the paperstrip
• ink up the edges of the tag, the doily and the paper strip with Distress Ink (Weathered Wood, Gathered Twigs)
• add splatters with watered-down Distress Paint (Walnut Stain)
• cut flowers from jeans and muslin with the help of one of the Sizzix Tattered Florals die and one of the Memory Box Fancy Blossoms
• cut the Memory Box Massa Leaf Background twice from paper from the same patterned paper pad and ink up the edges with Distress Ink (Bundled Sage)
