Now some inspiration from Francine and DeNetra

Francine 

DeNetra

Materials Used:
Chipboard Coasters
Paper: My Minds Eye "Be Happy"
Flowers: Wild Orchid Crafts  
Images: can be found HERE
(They are the Silhouettes By Robert Jackson. They are a MUST have :)
Details
I just covered my coasters using some tacky glue.
Then I added small pieces of scraps around the images.
I also inked everything using Tea Dye Distress Ink by Tim Holtz.
I added some dimension by crumpling the images.
This is a great ay to do this without adding the bulk.
Lastly I added on the embellishments.
And I just added the coastes to some ribbon.
Very simple and fun.
It's sure to add a great focal point to your next Back Yard Party.

LORRAINE
See more great projects at Lorraine's Place

Isn't this tag just a HOOT!  I told Lorraine it reminded me of my older sister who lives in Vegas.  I asked Lorraine to provide some details on this project:

   I used distress ink pads to colour my background and then ran it through a T.H. embossing folder.  The image and computer generated text labels were  coloured with my Promarkers.  The other embellishments were from a Jolie's set that must have been in my drawer for about six years, lol.  Most of the elements are 3D attached on foam pads.

Now for a little Inspiration from our Expressions Design Team!
