Gift Tag with Delicate Ornaments Thinlet
September 11, 2015
Today, we're going to explore using the Delicate Ornaments Thinlet to create a pretty little gift tag. Hint: this could easily turn into a really pretty greeting card.
Here's how you create this gift tag:
1. Cut 3 X 6 from Bermuda Bay cardstock, score the long side at 3"(this is your tag base).
2. Cut 2 5/8 X 2 5/8 from Dazzling Diamonds Glimmer paper and 2 1/2 X 2 1/2 white cardstock.
3. Stamp the corner snowflakes (Happy Scenes) in Bermuda Bay ink in all 4 corners of the white cardstock. Adhere this to the Dazzling Diamonds paper with glue dots and adhere this unit to the front of the tag base with glue dots.
4. Using the small round ornament thinlet (Delicate Ornament thinlets) set up your Big Shot sandwich like this: Big Shot multipurpose platform with Tab 2, Precision Base Platform*, 2 1/2 X 2 1/2 Pool party cardstock, Standard cutting pad. Run this through the Big Shot.
Note: I find it easy to remove the tiny pieces from the ornament by leaving the cardstock attached to the thinlit, putting a 6-8 layer dryer sheet under the cardstock and running back through the Big Shot--takes only seconds and all the work is done for you.
5. Adhere the ornament to the center of the tag using the new Fine Tip Glue (forgot to include below--this is the item number: 138309). You may want to set a weight on top for about a minute so that all edges remain in touch with the white cardstock underneath.
6. While it's drying, tie a bow in the 1/8" silver metallic ribbon, adhere this to the top of the ornament with a glue dot. Attach a Winter Wonderland Embellishment to the center of the ornament using a glue dot.

*Precision Base Platform is a delightful tool that gives you very crisp cuts with the thinklets that have very intricate designs---it is not required, but it is recommended to use this when cutting out this type of design)
