Lamb Easter Basket Tags

Happy Friday!  It's Jeanne today with some fun Easter basket tags.  This little lamb cupcake is too cute.  I thought it would be perfect to decorate the front of a tag to hang on Easter baskets.
To start, I cut the lambs from vanilla cardstock and the cupcake, flower and tag reinforcement from three different colors of cardstock.  I used white cardstock and the largest of the tag dies for the tags.
Using Distress Oxide ink in Antique Linen, I tipped the lamb pieces to add dimension to the fleece and colored the face.  Then I used a black fine tip marker and white gel pen to color the lambs' eyes.
I played around with how I wanted the colors to line up.  Originally I thought I'd use all one color per tag, but ultimately decided to use all the colors on each tag.
I assembled the tags by gluing all the cupcake pieces together and then putting them on the tags.
Finally, I used coordinating ribbon as the ties.
