Merry Christmas Gift Tag

July 3, 2021

Hey Crafters! Katelyn here, sharing with you a little Christmas in July with my Merry Christmas Gift Tag.

To create my gift tag, I’ve used a variety of dies and stamps from Suzanne Cannon as well as dies from the Planner Essentials Collection. You’ll want to read below as I share with you how to recreate my gift tag at home.

Step One. Choose a piece of red lightly patterned paper from the Reminiscence the Book. Die cut the small tag from the Planner Essentials – 2 die out of the patterned paper. Ink the edges of the tag using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Step Two. From the Flourished Christmas Minis 2 die, die cut the snowflake once out of White Soft Finish Cardstock and a second time out of silver foil paper.

Step Three. Die cut the stars once from the Peace on Earth Die out of Champagne foil paper. You’ll need a total of three stars.

Step Four. From the Christmas Collection Stamp Set, you’ll need the Merry Christmas words. Apply Jet Black Archival Ink to the words and stamp onto a piece of White Soft Finish Cardstock. Fussy cut the Merry word out and cut the Christmas word into a strip. Ink the edges of both pieces using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Step Five. Adhere one star in the top right corner of the tag. Adhere the second star in the top left corner of the tag. Adhere the third star in the bottom left corner of the tag.

Step Six. Layer and adhere the two snowflakes together, making sure that the silver foil snowflake ends up at the top. Foam square the snowflakes to the middle of the tag. Add Trans. Glitter/Gold Dots to the silver snowflake as desired.

Step Seven. Adhere the Merry Christmas sentiment to the bottom right portion of the tag as desired. The merry and some of the Christmas will sit on the snowflakes.

Step Eight. To finish the tag, tie a piece of twine through the hole at the top of the tag.

Thanks for joining me today! I hope that I’ve inspired you to create your own version of my Merry Christmas Gift Tag.

Apply Emboss It Ink to the snowflakes and stamp randomly on the tag, reapply ink as needed, you’ll need a total of fourteen snowflakes. Sprinkle Forever Platinum Modern Gilding Powder over the stamped images. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Ink the edges of the tag using Black Soot Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.

Step Eight. Adhere the snowflake to the middle of the ornament. Adhere the Joy embossed word slightly to the right overtop of the black cardstock Joy word, this will create a shadow in behind the embossed Joy word. Use foam squares to adhere the Joy word to the bottom right corner of the tag.

Step Nine. Tie a bow at the top of the tag with a piece of black twine. To finish off the tag, use White Craft Drops to add dots to the snowflake as desired.

Ho Ho Ho Santa Snow Scene

November 12, 2018

Hi Crafty Friends,

It’s Frances Byrne here today with another Christmas card tutorial to share with you. I have been having fun this year creating a lot of snowy Christmas scenes using Distress Oxide inks to create my skies. Christmas where I live down here in Australia is in summer, so we enjoy a hot Christmas Day with cold lunches and probably swimming in a pool. As we don’t experience snow, it is fun to create snowy scenes on paper instead.

Anyone Need Some Mittens?

October 6, 2018

The best thing about winter for me is layering up!  I love sweaters and cozy flannels…

Though I am too old for mittens, I’d take them if they were offered to me by someone as adorable as this penguin.  I keep using this die set because it is just so cute and so easy to use.  Today the penguin is holding a pair of mittens made with a die set from the new A Way With Words release.  Did you know that Elizabeth Craft Designs also sells self-adhesive velvet sheets?!  It’s a perfect match!  This card came together very quickly. In addition to being a fun card to mail, it would be an extra special way to hint at the contents of a gift box containing gloves or mittens!
