Welcome to Becca's Quest for Love and Country Creativity!
why: this posting showcases a new owner/design team inspiration project for HQFSCAT or Heart's Quest for Shaped Cards and Tags. I decided to just do 1 project this month. We've got four DT members besides me plus 2 Guest DTs that responded for this month so we've got lots of interesting shaped cards and shaped tags to enjoy!
when: #2 in 2026 (or #14) runs from Feb 2-28 with the theme of anything goes on a shaped card or a shaped tag. The only shape exception for both cards and tags is a regular rectangle/4 straight corners. Variations are allowed like rounded corners, punched corners, odd angles like a Z-fold, etc.
what: Project #1: different scalloped ends tag
how-to & vendor notes for #1: scalloped-ended tag
1. kraft brown scallop-topped tag = from pack by Crafter's Square; the end/bottom edge shown on the right side was fussy cut to mimic the edge of the emboss cut-out image to create a unique SHAPED TAG; also lightly inked in Guava/Lawn Fawn
2. embossed 'just because' tag/image was just black on white = Hot Off The Press (part of a set)
3. Guava mini stamp pad = Lawn Fawn
4. butterfly and flower stickers = Antique Gardens sticker book by Maggie Holmes
5. wood butterfly (inked with pink marker from my stash box); wanted it to contrast to the Guava that is a mix of pink and orange/coral tones = sold in pack = Crafter's Square
6. orange and white + pink and white gingham ribbons = Crafter's Square
