Tag: Quick and Easy

Creative Tag Making with Eileen Hull Silverware 3D Embossing Folder

May 23, 2024

Hi everyone! I’m back with another tag. I had actually created this last week but I had family obligations that kept me away from blogging. So I’m sharing a week late and hopefully next week I can double up and do two posts instead of one.

Anyways, I used the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits, Silverware 3D Embossing Folder and the Faux Postage Thinlits, all by Eileen Hull, to create this tag. So let’s get started!

First, I cut two of the largest tags from the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits since I will have to glue these back to back. I placed the aqua color tag into the Silverware 3D Embossing Folder, place between one of the plates and platform and run through the Diecut Machine.

I lightly inked the raised edges with a green chalk ink. Next I applied Rose Gold Luster Wax over random areas of the tag. I also adhered both tags back to back before jumping into decorating the embossed side.

Second, I went through my pile of scraps and came across two partials of the Faux Postage Thinlits, a circle punch, “delicious” sentiment and a few long skinny scraps of cardstock. I adhered all those to the base of the tag.

Third, I stamped an image of silverware onto a piece of cardstock but I only fussy cut the spoon out and lightly inked with a brown chalk ink. The stamp set I used is from Tim Holtz: Nature Cling Stamps which is retired.

I fussy cut an image of a woman with a rabbit head from a itKuPiLLimaginarium Printable. I also used a box cutter and cut around the hand so I could place the spoon in the hand before gluing to the tag to finish this side.

Fourth, for the other side of the tag I used the negative of a circle that I had punched out, seven image and several scraps of patterned cardstock and glued to the tag.

Fifth, I picked a woman image from the Mini Paper Dolls and adhered to the tag. I dug into my stash flowers and glued to the skirt of the woman. I also added a button and thread to the center of the flower to finish.

Learning to Fly Tag

May 10, 2024

Hi everyone! I am back this week with another tag. I didn’t have a lot of time so it’s an uber quick and easy project using the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits by Eileen Hull. So let’s get started!

First, I cut two of the largest tags from the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits since these cardstocks had no design on the back. I glued those together.

I gathered a pink and orange strip of cardstock and adhered to the tag. I dug into my basket of chipboard embellishments and found a bird image, corner protector and a small flower circle.

Second, I matted the bird image with a piece of patterned cardstock, along with a polkadot scrap of cardstock and a scrap of Crochet diecut from the Crochet 2 Thinlits and glued all to the tag.

Third, I finished by adding a circle mat to the flower circle, a small yellow rose I had cut from a piece of cardstock and a “learning to fly” sticker sentiment to the tag.

Fourth, for the back of the tag, I adhered two patterned strips of cardstock to the tag. I pulled the mason jar image from my basket and glued to the tag.

Fifth, I picked out the little sitting boy and the little girl from the pack of Mini Paper Dolls and adhered the boy on top of the jar and the little girl next to the jar to finish the tag.

Vintage Buttons Tag

May 3, 2024

Hi everyone! I’m back with my tag for the week. I used leftover scraps from pervious projects and used Eileen Hull’s Vintage Buttons 3D Embossing Folder and the Tag and Bookplate Diecut (retired) by Tim Holtz. Anyways, let’s get started!

First, I had leftover scraps of Mat Board that I cut a tag from using the Tag and Bookplate Diecut (retired). Since the piece of mat board was shorter than the actual tag die I have a “short” version of the tag.

I placed the tag into the Vintage Buttons 3D Embossing Folder and run through the Diecut Machine.

I lightly inked the tag with a few different shades of blue inks.

Second, I really didn’t like the how the blue looked “flat” so I lightly inked over the raised areas with a green chalk ink. Then, I applied Rose Gold Luster Wax over the raised areas of the tag. You can use a Blending Tool to apply the wax but I chose to use my finger.

Third, I gathered up my cardstock scraps, these are from 7 Gypsies… I miss this company so much, I added those to the tag. I cut a a crochet piece from the Crochet #2 Thinlits, inked with a brown chalk ink and glued to the tag. The button card piece I did add thread to each button hole before adding to the tag.

Fourth, I dug into my stash of flowers and found this vintage looking flower and glued it onto the tag.

Fifth, I finished this side of the tag with bows made from thread and lace and a button.

Sixth, I covered the back of the tag with a polkadot cardstock. I kept this side simple by adding a few scraps of cardstock to the tag.

Seventh, the little boy image and butterfly wings was already fussy cut and ready in my stash. This printable is from the Steampunk Fairy Boys Paper Dolls. I glued another piece of the crochet diecut to the tag along with the butterfly boy, a bit of lace and a button to finish this side of the tag.

If you have any questions about this tag or comments in general please leave them below. Also if you haven’t been by Eileen Hull’s blog for the latest from her teams you can find the post HERE.

Thinking of You Peacock Card

May 1, 2024

Hi everyone and Happy 1st of May! As the weather starts warming up and my time indoors is less, you know gardening and time in the pool, I wanted to share a quick and easy card I created. I used Eileen Hull‘s Faux Postage Thinlits and the Floral Silhouettes Thinlits (only at Scrapbook.com) to create this card in under 15 minutes. So let’s get started!

First, I folded a piece of Blue Cardstock in half and placed the “fold line” slightly inside of the of the rectangle thinlit from the Faux Postage Thinlits before running through the Diecut Machine. Side note, I did use wash tape to hold the thinlit in place while running through the diecut machine. This keeps the thinlit from shifting.

Second, I selected the peacock cardstock from the Flourish 6″x6″ Paper Pad (retired). I had already cut off a portion of the cardstock to create a journaling spot and the cardstock didn’t completely cover all of the Faux Postage Thinlit so I centered the image onto the thinlit and ran through the diecut machine.

Third, I cut a mat from White Cardstock and adhered to the back of the peacock image.

Fourth, I glued the peacock image to the card base.

Fifth, I used a scrap of Watercolor Paper, placed onto the MISTI Stamping Tool, placed the journaling box stamp from Simple Sayings Stamps Set, inked with Black Ink and stamped onto the watercolor paper.

I removed the journaling box and placed the “Thinking of You” stamp sentiment onto the MISTI Stamping Tool, inked with Black Ink and stamped inside of the journaling box image.

Sixth, I fussy cut the image with Scissors and adhered to the bottom corner of the card. I cut three flowers and two leaf sprigs from the Floral Silhouettes Thinlits (only at Scrapbook.com), shaped the flowers with a Stylus and glued two together and adhered one leaf sprig to the back before placing it to the lower corner of the sentiment. The other flower I cut one of the leaves off from the leaf sprig and glued to the back of the flower before adding to upper corner of the sentiment. I glued two gems to the center of each flower to finish.

The Faux Postage Thinlits can take any large graphic image on a piece of cardstock, you know the ones that you really aren’t sure what to do with it, and and turn it into a simple card. Or you can remove a few of the “postage stamps” and replace them for a completely different look. So many possibilities!

Old School Tag

April 25, 2024

Hi everyone! I’m back this week with another tag I created using Eileen Hull’s Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits. Since my wrist has been bothering me this week I wasn’t sure if I would get one made but I powered through and created a quick and easy tag. Anyways, let’s get started!

First, I cut two of the largest tags from the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits and glued those back to back since the patterned cardstock was only on one sided.

Second, I added an assortment of scraps of cardstock to the base of the tag and then I dug into my basket of chipboard embellishments and glued the “old school”, “wear and tag” gauge and “splats” to the tag.

Third, I picked this dapper gentleman from the Mini Paper Dolls and adhered him next to the “old school” sentiment and called this side of the tag finished.

Fourth, for this side of the tag I used a scraps of cardstock and a few printables that was leftover from pervious projects. I adhered those to the base of the tag along with a doily shaped acetate overlay from my stash. I also added the “memories” sentiment on top of the overlay.

Fifth, I added a mini paper doll woman to the tag along a couple of Liquid Gloss dots to the flowers to finish this side of the tag.

This tag came together very quickly and will be added to my ring of tags. Also if you haven’t been by Eileen Hull’s blog lately to see what her team has created you can find that post HERE.

Bird House and Feathers Tag

April 19, 2024

Hi everyone! I am back with a quick and easy tag I created using, you guessed it, scraps from my desk. I used the largest tag from Eileen Hull’s Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits as the base for my tag. Anyways, let’s get started!

First, I had cut two of the largest tags out from the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits since the cardstock I used wasn’t double sided. I glued both tags back to back and lightly inked around both sides with a light green chalk ink.

Second, I gathered an assortment of scraps of cardstock and adhered to the tag. I used one “postage stamp” from the Snail Mail Thinlits and a button from the Card Case Diecut, these were already in my stash, and I added them to the tag as well.

Third, I fussy cut two feathers, bird house and the floral and feather arrangement from the Farm Sweet Farm Paper Collection.

I adhered the bird house to the tag but the two feathers I shaped with a Stylus and placed Foam Pop Dots to the back of the floral arrangements before placing all to the tag.

Fourth, I applied Liquid Gloss to the floral arrangement and let dry.

Fifth, on the back side of the tag I kept it simple and flat. I gathered more scraps of cardstock, some were negatives of images that I had cut out and I thought that would be pretty cool to add to the tag. I adhered all to the tag.

Sixth, the “I call it enjoying my own company” sentiment I cut from a larger piece of cardstock. I matted with cardstock before gluing to the tag. I picked a woman from the Mini Paper Dolls and added her to the tag to finish.

Have you tried your hand at making tags yet? It’s a great way to use up those scraps or try a new technique on a small format. If you have any questions or comments please leave them in the comment box below.

Family and Flowers Tag

April 11, 2024

Hi everyone! I’m back with another quick and easy tag this week. I used scraps I had laying on my desk and the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits by Eileen Hull and a few other dies by her as well to create this tag. So let’s get started!

First, since the cardstock I used was double sided I only cut one tag from Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits using the largest tag thinlit. I gathered a couple of patterned scraps of cardstock and glued to the front of the tag.

Second, I had cut the envelope, three flowers, center to the flower and the smallest leaf out from the Envelope, Folder and Flowers Thinlits. I adhered the envelope together before gluing to the tag. I dug into a packet of Mini Paper Dolls and selected a family which I placed inside of the envelope.

Third, I shaped the three flowers, flower center and leaf with a Stylus. I adhered the three flowers on top of each other along with the center and the leaf to the back of the flower before gluing to the corner of the envelope.

Fourth, I dug into my stash of flowers and leaf sprigs that I had already cut out. These are from the Folio Page, Pocket and Flower Thinlits and the Shadow Box Elements Thinlits and I always try and have some extra cut out and on hand to use in projects.

I shaped the flowers and leaf sprigs with a stylus before adding around the layered flower. I finished off this side of the tag by adding Pearls to the center of the flowers, shredded cheese cloth and a bow made out of thread.

Fifth, the back side of the tag I kept simple. I used leftover printables from a tag I shared earlier, you can find that post HERE, and more scraps of cardstock. I glued the layers to the tag and added a fussy cut vine on top of the layers.

Sixth, I had this leftover button diecut that didn’t make it onto a pervious project. I had cut that from the Card Case Diecut. I tied thread through the button holes and adhered to the tag along with sequins. I finished by adding some Liquid Gloss to the leaves on the vine.

I am really excited that I’m building a nice jump ring of tags and can’t wait to create one for next week!

Blooms and Bunny Tag

April 5, 2024

Hi everyone! It’s a new month and a new, quick and easy tag I would like to share with you! I didn’t do step by step photos since I was in the moment of creating. But I used the Waterfall Card and Tag Thinlits and a few other dies by Eileen Hull. So let’s get started!

First, I cut out only one of the largest tags (since the cardstock is double sided) from the Waterfall Card and Tag Thinlits and went through my scrap bag and gathered cardstock and cut parts for the front and back of the tag.

Second, I had a label from the Everyday Tags and Labels Thinlits (only at Scrapbook.com) in my stash so I adhered that along with the scraps of cardstock and a cut a part to the tag. I also had a bunny, that never made it into a project, that I had cut out from the Doodle Christmas Thinlits. I lightly inked it was a white chalk ink to give dimension.

Third, I cut two of the larger flowers and the smaller flower from the Shadow Box Elements Thinlits and the leaf sprig, which I used as the “veins” for the leaf from the Folio, Page, Pocket and Flowers Thinlits and the leaf from the Bookmark, Tag and Pocket Thinlits (retired). I shaped all the flowers and the leaf with a Stylus. I glued all the flowers on top of each and added the leaf sprig onto the leaf before placing all onto the tag.

I finished the front of the tag by adding a Pearl to the center of the flower and loops of thread.

Fourth, I adhered more scraps to the back of the tag. The square and circle was from a leftover project that I had cut from the Faux Postage Thinlits.

I turned the circle over since it is white and would make the rose stand out. The rose and “bloom” sentiment are from the Garden Party Collection by Maggie Holmes. As you can see this side of the tag came together quickly.

I have been challenging myself to make at least one tag a week and, so far, I’ve managed to do so for a whole month. YAY! Question…have you completed a challenge where you make something each week? If you haven’t I would like to challenge you to start creating a tag or some type of small project each week. Let me know in the comments below if you have or are planning to.

Shades of Green Tag

March 21, 2024

Hi everyone! I’m back this week with a quick and easy Saint Patrick’s Day tag I created. I know Saint Patty’s Day is over but I’ve been a little under the weather and I’m now getting around to sharing. My go to thinlit for this project is the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits by Eileen Hull. Anyways, let’s get started!

First, I cut out two of the largest tags from the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits since the backs of both cardstocks were white and glued them back to back. I fussy cut all the images out from the free printable that I had downloaded from the Graphic Fairy. It was a free printable that was offered on their instagram page so I’m not sure if it’s still available or not? But you can find other images on their site for free or they have a paid membership option also.

Second, I used two different size circle punches to punch out two of the images but the other images were fussy cut. Before adding all the images to the tag I lightly inked the edges of the tag with a light green chalk ink.

The butterfly I applied adhesive to the center part and bent the wings upwards before placing onto the tag. I used Gold Stickles on the wings of the butterfly and I added Liquid Gloss to the berries of the leaves and branch to finish this side of the tag.

Third, I lightly inked this side of the tag with the light green chalk ink along with a few of the fussy cut images. I layered, distressed and adhered the images to the tag. The image of the woman I added Foam Pop Dots to the back before placing onto the tag.

Fourth, I added gems to the hat and added Liquid Gloss to the center of each flower before calling it finished. I really enjoyed using the printable along with the scraps that I used for the tags. I have leftovers from the printable so I’m sure those images with end up in another project down the road.

If you have any questions or comments about this tag please leave them below.

B is for Bird Tag

February 28, 2024

Hi everyone! I’m back this week with another quick and easy tag I created using more leftover scraps from my desk and Eileen Hull‘s Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits. So let’s get started!

First, I cut two of the largest and one of the medium size tags from the Waterfall Card and Tags Thinlits. I glued the two largest tags together since the back of one of the cardstocks was white and I was going to decorate both sides. I lightly inked the edges with a brown chalk ink. I adhered a scrap of patterned cardstock, along with the medium size tag on to the larger tag.

Second, I had a leftover wreath that I had cut from the Wreath and Snowflake Thinlits that I added to the tag. I layered two scraps of cardstock on top of each other and glued slightly off one side of the tag and folded and glued to the other side of the tag. I had a cut a part of “b is for bird” card that I cut down further and adhered the bird in the lower corner and the sentiment in the upper corner of the tag to finish the front of the tag.

Third, the other side of the tag I used several cut a parts along with a vintage looking man from the Mini Paper Dolls and a sequin and a gem to finish the tag. I told you it was quick and easy!

Also if you don’t know, Eileen Hull is having a release party this Friday, March 1st, and can be found on YouTube, Instagram and her Eileen Hull Fan Club Facebook Page. All times are listed below and there will be a giveaway too! I hope to see you there!
