Build-A-Tag Holiday Tags: Sending Joy Shaker Tags with Vanessa

Hello there! Vanessa here today with a bunch of shaker tags using the Build-A-Tag #2 Dies. This is what I came up with.

First, I die-cut the tags six times from white cardstock, thrice from clear cardstock and thrice from white fun foam. Then I die-cut a square window from three cardstock tags and the fun foam tags. 

Next, I inked the front of the remaining three cardstock tags with blue Distress Oxide ink, filled the windows with decor ice and assembled the tags.

Now I stamped and heat-embossed the sentiment from Gleeful Reindeer thrice onto red cardstock, die-cut these with the circle from the Sliding Window Dies and tied one onto each tag with ribbon and twine.

Finally, I stamped the images from Alpaca Holiday, colored them with Copics, die-cut the elements with the matching dies and adhered them to the tags.

I hope to have given you some last-minute inspiration for cute Christmas tags! Merry Christmas everybody and thanks for visiting!

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 HolidayThe 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.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Build-A-Tag Holiday Cheer Paper Christmas Icons Ugly Christmas Sweater Tags by Juliana Michaels

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 t
o 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.

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.

Sunny Studio Stamps: Build-A-Tag Warm & Cozy Holiday Cheer Warm Winter Wishes Gift Tags by Eloise Blue

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!
