Hi everyone! I’m back with another project and this time I create a couple of mini tags from some old Graphic 45 and Authentique cardstocks that I had in my stash (both are now retired). I love to create tags, to me, they are easier than cards to make. Once made I place them on a jump ring so I can go back and look at them. Anyways, I didn’t do step out photos but enjoyed the creating process and wanted to share the finished results.
First, I cut the largest tag from the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits from the Graphic 45 cardstock. The other Graphic 45 cut-a-part I used an assortment of those and a Santa cut-a-part from the Authentique cardstock along with bits and pieces of cardstock, diecuts and a bow. I used chalk ink lightly over the edges of the tag to age it. I also placed Foam Pop Dots to the back of the Santa image before placing onto the tag.
Second, the back side of the tag I used more scraps of patterned cardstock, a Christmas tree cut-a-part from the Authentique and a fussy cut holly from Graphic 45 which I shaped with a Stylus before adding to the tag.
Third, the next tag is actually from the Graphic 45 cut-a-part. I added a game ticket to the side of the tag. I punched a hole at the top. I cut and embossed a label from the Everyday Tags and Labels Thinlits(only at Scrapbook.com) and glued three of the edges to the tag before adhering the “Happy Holidays” sentiment and postage stamp to the pocket.
Fourth, I placed two tags from the Graphic 45 cut-a-part inside the pocket.
Fifth, the other side of the tag since it already have a Santa image I only added a “ho ho ho” image and a fussy cut poinsettia, that I added foam pop dots to the back before placing onto the tag. I finished off by adding a bow made from thread.
Here’s another idea on how to use tags if you don’t want to keep them on a ring like I do. They can be added to journals or attached to a gift.
