Build-A-Tag Holiday Tags: Little Critter Winter Tags with Franci

Hi there! Franci here with you today, with a little trio of tags made with all my favorite Sunny Studio cuties!

These are super simple, quick and easy to make so, if you have a ton to make for all your Christmas gifts be sure to give this simple design a try! First, I die cut my tags from the Build-A-Tag #1 set out of white cardstock and I also cut out some additional tags to create my snowy hills later on.

I stamped all of the critters from different sets - Party Pups, Purrfect Birthday and Alpaca Holiday. The dog and the little cat are my fave. They are from birthday themed sets, but by using different colors on the little presents, they are perfect for Christmas!! 

I die cut all of the images with their coordinating dies and I inked all of my tags to create a dark night effect. I die cut all the snowy hills with the Woodland Borders set and composed all my little tags. 

Finally, I added some snow to my backgrounds, drawing little dots here and there with a white gel pen and added little red clips at the tops. I also arranged them in a little banner with some white pom poms so I can display them in my craft room before I'll attach them to my gifts! 

Hope you like this festive tags and thank you so much for stopping by today!

Build-A-Tag Holiday Tags: Ugly Christmas Sweater Tags with Juliana

Happy Holidays friends! It's Juliana Michaels and today I'm here to share a set of Ugly Christmas Sweater Tags featuring the Build-A-Tag die sets and Christmas Icons stamp set.

For these tags, begin by creating the tag base. Cut 3 pieces of patterned paper from the Holiday Cheer 6x6" paper pad using the scalloped edged die from Build-A-Tag #2. Use this same die to cut 3 more tags from white cardstock and set them to the side.

Next, take the other tag die in the Build-A-Tag #2 set and position it as shown in the photo on top of the tags you just cut.

Make sure you line the die up so that it doesn't cut off the bottom scalloped edges. You are using this die to cut the “V” in the top of the tag. This will create the top of your sweater.

Take the straight edge and angled dies from the Build-A-Tag #1 set and die cut a piece of the striped patterned paper from the Holiday Cheer 6x6 paper pad. This will become the trim on your sweaters.

Once you have all of the pieces die cut. You can begin to assemble the tags. Adhere the “V” cut piece on top of the solid white die cut tag.

Next, adhere the trim to the bottom of the tag making sure to cover the scallops. Then adhere the trim along the “V” edge at the top of the tag.

The final step is to decorate your Ugly Christmas Sweater Tags using some of the fun images from the Christmas Icons stamp set. I probably could have gone a bit uglier, but I stuck with one image for each tag and colored them with Copic markers.

So, how would you decorate your Ugly Christmas Sweater Tags? I hope you enjoyed today's project and thanks so much for joining me today!

Build-A-Tag Holiday Tags: Warm Winter Wishes Tags with Eloise

Hi friends, Eloise here and today I have some tags to share with you all using the Build A Tag #1 Dies, Warm and Cozy Dies and also pulling in the Holiday Cheer Patterned Paper Pack for my die cut elements today as well.

To start off my tags, I cut all my elements out using the Warm and Cozy Die Set from the Holiday Cheer Patterned Paper Pack. I then used some the Build A Tag #1 Die Set and cut some rounded tags from white cardstock and also the circle tags from some Kraft cardstock. I then cut the topper piece and bottom piece from patterned paper, too. 

Next I adhered all the elements together using liquid glue and then added foam tape onto the backs and also onto the backs of the topper and bottom pieces. I then adhered them onto the white tags all into place. 

Lastly, I white heat embossed the 'Warm Winter Wishes' sentiment from Alpaca Holiday onto the Kraft tags and then tied some hemp cord and twine through the tops of the tags, threading through the sentiment tags at the same time. 

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I hope you enjoyed my tags and I'll see you next week.

Guest Designer Spotlight: Christmas Cards with Anika Lerche

Hey stampers, Anni here. I am back again as a guest designer and so happy that Mendi is such a kind person to let me come back for a few cards.

Today I have a set of cards for you that I created using the die set Warm & Cozy, sentiments from the stamp set Alpaca Holiday and patterned paper from Holiday Cheer. The die set Warm & Cozy is full of possibilities. I really liked it when I first saw it. But when I crafted with it, it totally blew my mind because it is so well thought through. I think, that is typical for Mendi's work. 

You got so many options with this set to decorate the hat, the gloves and the mugs. I really love it.

I started by die cutting all the images I needed from patterned paper and from cardstock. Then I assembled the hats, the gloves and the mugs and added some shading with grey alcohol marker.

To create the backgrounds I added some ink blending with a white pigment ink on kraft cardstock. To add some interest I also stamped some stars with the same ink on the background and splattered some watered down white acrylic paint on the card.

For the sentiment I stamped "Warm Christmas Wishes" on a stripe of dark brown cardstock. I really love that there are so many possibilities to choose from in this set. Not only so many words to combine but also different fonts - so awesome!

I had so much fun playing with these goodies and it was a pleasure to be a guest designer for Sunny Studio!

Thanks for stopping by and have a crafty weekend.

Here Comes Santa Window Style Christmas Card with Mendi

Hello there!  It's Mendi here today with a fun Christmas card idea using our Here Comes Santa stamps.  I thought it would be cool to showcase them in a window style card using our Fancy Frames Circle dies and a couple of 3/16" wide strips of white cardstock.

To fill my window I started by inking my sky from bottom to top in Peacock Feathers, Salty Ocean, Mermaid Lagoon, Blueprint Sketch and Chipped Sapphire Distress inks blending them with my favorite Jumbo Dauber.  When I was done stamped my tree border (twice) and my Santa and reindeer along the top.  I then used a white extra fine Sharpie paint pen to draw in some stars (or snow--I can't decide which).

I completed my card with a banner stamped on pale yellow cardstock to match my moon using our Sunny Borders stamps which was inked up along the edges using Squeezed Lemonade distress inks.  I finished it off with a sentiment from our Gleeful Reindeer Stamps and a simple tone-on-tone striped paper from our Striped Silly Paper pack to give the look of wallpaper.

I hope I've inspired you to try a window style card of your own.  They're seriously so much fun!
