Tag Swap for Your Paper Pantry -includes video

Another fun tag swap at YPP (http://yourpaperpantry.ning.com/)
February's theme was Easter/Spring and pastel colors
I had so much fun creating these tags, I used my cricut machine to cut out the little chick and her eggs using the Easter 2010 cricut cartridge.

Here is a video showing all the details along with a tutorial of how I made it.... Enjoy!

Emily is a sweet little 6 year old girl that has battled Leukemia since before Chrstmas 2011. She has had to endure more pain in a few short months than most adults in their entire life. She has gone from Leukemia to Rotavirus, to pancreatitis, to kidney stones, then to shingles, not to mention over 300 pokes in her tiny little body! From chemo to blood draws to feeding tube. Her bone marrow is finally at 0.00% so she is now in remission and back at home! She is still going through 7 different chemotherapy treatments but is finally doing better! To read her full story and updates please visit the original Cards for Emily info post HERE
