Tags, Tags and More Tags

'Tis the season to be wrapping.... Here is my christmas tag for all my presents this year. Super easy to make and what a great touch instead of just a a bow. I printed labels with the recipients names and put them on the candy cane. I wrote a little message inside of each of the tags.

Ingredients to make the tag:

Paper: Holiday Lounge Designer Series Paper, Whisper White

Accessories: White Organza Ribbon, 5/16" Jumbo Brads

Tools: Big Shot, Two Tags Sizzex

Mojo Monday and Inkredible Color Challenge

I decided to combine this week's Mojo Monday and Inkredible Color Challenge in one card. The colors for the week for our Inkredible Impressions group are: Always Artichoke, Eggplant Envy and Very Vanilla.

Here are the ingredients to make the card:

Stamp Sets: Great Friend, Kind & Caring Thoughts

Ink: Eggplant Envy and Always Artichoke

Paper: Patterns Designer Series Paper (retired), Always Artichoke, Eggplant Envy and Very Vanilla

Accessories: Gold Brads

Tools: Circle Scissor Plus

Special Touch: I can't seem to do anything lately with out a little dimension. So the circle & the greeting were adhered to the card with nothing less by Stampin' Dimensionals.

Naughty & Nice

Here is a gift card holder I came up with that gives the receipant a little surprise.... jingle bells come bouncing out as you open the card. So I decided to call it my Naughty and Nice gift for someone who was good but not a 100% good. It reminds of the card confetti that use to be put in all the cards years ago.

Ingredients to make the card:

Stamp Set: Sweet Centers, Christmas Greetings, Delightful Decorations

Ink: Real Red

Paper: Holiday Lounge Designer Series Paper, Real Red and Whisper White

Accessories: Fire Rhinestone Brads, Sweet Treats Cup and Real Red Polka Dot Grosgrain Ribbon
Tools: Scallop Border Punch, 3/4" circle punch, 1 3/4" circle punch and key tag punch (retired)

Special touch: I took a 11 x 4 1/4" piece of paper and scored it at 5 1/4, 10 1/2. I then folded it under and adhered it to make a pocket. I then made sure to punch the center of the ornament for the sweet cup through all the card layers except the insert. You will need to do each layer one at a time. You can either use the top layer as a guide or trace the circle on the paper as a guide. The inside I attached a piece of white card stock and put mono around the sides and bottom to make the pocket. Make sure you make the strip for the pocket long enough so it does show through the sweet center cup. I removed the rhinestone backs with my craft & rubber scissors. They say a picture is worth a thousand words, so see all the pics to get a visual of what was done.

Special Touch: The trees were stamped, heat embossed and then cut out and attached with Stampin' Dimensionals. The greeting was as well heat embossed. I covered the On Board Long Board with white card stock and then ran it through the Big Shot with the Clear Circle Sizzex. I punched a hole with a crop-a-dile and then tied the organza ribbon. The gold cord bow was tied seperately and then attached with a mini glue dot.
