and the Greetings of the Season dies

Stocking

As you can see these dies are specifically designed to create tons of tags...gift tags or tags used on card fronts...use them singly or use them together.  This week we've chosen to attach 2 tags from the set to give us some extra pizzazz! That long dovetail tag is attached at the back to form the double layer look for today's creation.

We've used the sketched stocking stamp with Fa la la embedded in it to add that perky style and fun.

Surrounding the stocking we added the Red/White Peppermint Dots to coordinate with the red stocking and just plain sprinkle of cuteness! I'd love a truck load of those to accompany the truckload of glimmer paper that's on my Wish List for Santa this year!

To top it all off we added that sweet Shaded Spruce Satin bow at the top.

Stop back by next week for Week 4 of 12 Weeks of Christmas.

12 Weeks of Christmas Week 3 (Part 1) Quick & Easy Gift Tags

Today we're creating 12 Weeks of Christmas Week 3 (Part 1) Quick & Easy Gift Tags! The tags we're creating this week will be using a fun stamp set, Festive Words, and a totally fabulous set of dies, Greetings of the Season.

Here's today's tag..


Tree

 

The Festive Words is "simply" terrific for creating tags--the greetings are built creatively in the image.   This makes creating the tag quite simple and still display a very professional appearance.

We begin today's tag using the large tag die cut from White cardstock--notice the lovely stitching around the edges and the hole already punched to make this a very easy tag.

We then die cut the long dovetail from red cardstock and layer it behind the tag--tie them together with Rea & White Baker's Twine.

Today's tag is stamped with the tree ...the words Love Peace & Joy embedded among the branches. To give some pizzazz in the surrounding tag we stamped the random dot in Stazon Saddle Brown ink giving the dots a golden color.

The tree is colored with Light Shaded Spruce Blend and topped off with a star die cut from Peach Pie Glimmer paper and a Cherry Cobbler & Gold bow at the trunk. To cinch the pizzazz we sparkle up the branches with Wink of Stella.

Stop back by Thursday to see the second part of Week 3--Quick & Easy Christmas Tags.

12 Weeks of Christmas Week #2 (Part 2) More Beautiful Tags

Today we continue 12 Weeks of Christmas Week #2 (Part 2) More Beautiful Tags. Tuesday we created a very cute tag with the Merriest Trees dies...if you missed it check it out here Click here to see Tuesday's tag.

For today's tags (yes, more than one) we're continuing to use the Merriesst Trees dies

Screenshot 2024-10-09 091516

We'er using the layering tree dies today to create 4 simple tags by adding layers to the bottom of our tree. 

Note: for each tree we recommend die cutting the base (whichever you are using for your base) in white cardstock to give the tag a bit more stability, made the backside look professional and gives you a great place to easily write the "To/From" info.

The small version...

Small adj2This tag uses the 3-tier, 2-tier & 1 tier dies from the Take a Bow Designer Series Papers & the top tier is from the white glimmer paper.

The medium size tag...

Medium treeFor the medium tag we took the small tag above & added the red/white striped layer using the 4 tier die.

Finally our large tag...

Large tree

This adds the green with stars DSP using the 5-tier die.

Using this model you can adjust the size of your tag to fit your gift size---the largest would not look great on a tiny box ... likewise the small tag would not look great on a very large bag or box.  

Here's a suggestion....die cut multiple of each tier & some white bases of each size...this way you can construct the size you need on the spot when you need it!

Stop back next week for Week 3 of the 12 Weeks of Christmas!

12 Weeks of Christmas Week 2 (Part 1) More Simple Gift Tags

Today we are in 12 Weeks of Christmas Week 2 (Part 1) More Simple Gift Tags.  Last week we began our journey to Christmas by creating some super simple tags...if you missed it you can check it out here Week 1 Part 1 and here Week 1 Part 2.

We're continuing our Christmas tags with a slightly upgraded design but still keeping it relatively simple and quick.

This week's designs use the "carried over" Merriest Tree Dies

Screenshot 2024-10-09 091516Today's tag uses the "tag" die along with one of the stackable tree dies...

Tag

Because our base is designer paper which is a bit more lightweight than cardstock we first cut a tag from white cardstock followed by the red dotted designer paper and glued these together. Note the tag die already has your hole punched in the top ready to go.

Then we die cut the 3-tier tree from the green with stars designer paper and popped that up with dimensionals on the tag.

The star is cut from the Peach Pie (2024-26 In Color Glimmer) paper and the ornaments are medium rhinestones colored with the Dark Cherry Cobbler Blend.

The tie is 12" of Red/White Baker's Twine looped through the tag hole.

Stop back Thursday to see out next Christmas tag for some real cutie tags!

Part Two of Week #1 in 12 Weeks of Christmas Using Scraps for Gift Tags

Today we're in Part Two of Week #1 in 12 Weeks of Christmas Using Scraps for Gift Tags. Tuesday we created a really pretty & quick gift tag---if you missed it check it out here click to see Tuesday's tag.

Today we're using the same bundle that we used on Tuesday--the Christmas Labels set

Screenshot 2024-10-02 115631

This set was just made for this week's projects. 

Here's today's tag...

SmallWhen I die cut this cutie I didn't know which greeting I wanted to use--I picked up the one I used on Tuesday and was super surprised to see that it fit just perfectly in this die cut also! The cut is completely different that the first tag but Stampin'Up! has cleverly designed this die cut to also accommodate it!

Again, we used white cardstock fron the scrap bin and Real Red ink. We also used the same peppermint embellishments to add that special pizzazz. And, again you can create tons of these within an hour for your stash.

Now...for the idea promised you on Tuesday....aren't we all looking for a fun gift for our special people--co-workers, small group buddies, neighbors, etc....AND, we all are looking for that budget conscious gift that is awesome, fun, and inexpensive, am I right?

So create about 20 of these tags in a hand crafted bag or box, tie it with a pretty ribbon and use one of these tags on your bag. You are using up scraps and creating a fun inexpensive gift that will be greatly appreciated by your friends (they are busy too and love to use handmade items). So get busy--create some more and give them away!

Stop back next week for Week #2 of Christmas projects.
