  6. Step 6

    Position tag rim over stamped image. Let dry.

    Repeat steps 3-4 to make a second rim, and adhere it to the back of the tag.

  8. Step 8

    Adhere tags to your project using glue dots, brads, eyelets, or ribbon.


    Repeat steps 3-4 to make a second rim, and adhere it to the back of the tag.
