Gift Tag

Hello there friends!  I had one more Christmas gift hanging around that Santa dropped off at my house for delivery and that darn Santa didn't have the courtesy to wrap it.  Sooooo, I thought I better do it. 

I decided this gal needed a special tag, as she is a very special person.  She owns the "studio" where I go, to do my scrapbooking.  My Happy Place truly is my happy place.

Here is the front of the tag.  I started with a premade tag and used some Broken China Distress Ink to give it a little color.  I then used a stamp from the Inkadinkado Christmas in New York set and embossed it with burgundy embossing powder.  The silver flakes at the top of the tag are from a different stamp in the same set.

The Merry Christmas is  from Bo Bunny  Merry Christmas Clearly Stamps set and embossed with green powder

This is the back of the tag.  For "Jen" I used gold embossing powder and stamps from "Coffee House Alphabet" also from Inkadinkado.  Both the Inkadinkado sets were ones I got for Christmas in a grab box of acrylic stamps from Frantic Stamper.  The little jewels in the bottom corner are from Frantic Stamper also, from the Prima grab box I received.

Here is what the gift looked like once I was finished wrapping it.  I simply used a grocery bag that had been cut open and ironed to smooth it out.  The ribbon and other embellishments are from my stash.  I think it turned out looking very pretty.  Hope she likes it.  I have orders to report back to Santa about it. LOL!

Thanks for stopping by today.  Leave me a comment to say hi or give me some feedback.  I always like to hear what people think.

Until next time, Happy Crafting!

Tag You're It! contest.

Frantic Stamper's blog is having a Tag You're It contest.  I entered a few tags into it, but unfortunatly I didn't make the finals.  Below are 4 tags that I entered.  I think they turned out pretty nice.  I've never done a lot of tags like this, so this is something new for me. 

I love the rose on this tag.  It is one that I made a little while ago and knew that eventually I would find the perfect project for it. I got the doily at

Hollo's Papercrafts.  The bird is a stamp from The Paper Company.

Yeah, that's me on that tag.  I was thinking this would make a nice tag to give someone on a gift,  wouldn't have to sign it, they could just look at the pic  and see who it was from.

Made this one mostly with supplies I got in a grab box that I got for Christmas filled with Prima products.  It was bought from Frantic Stamper.

I love this FUN tag!  I received some Pan Pastels for Christmas and wanted to mess around with them.  That is what I used to color the tag.  Love it!  I stamped the FUN onto the tag and the flowers were others that I got in my grab box.  All the brads in the flower centers and lower right hand corner are ones I got in a prize pack that I won from Kristen Swain on her blog, Blankety Blank Blank.

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope you have enjoyed my tags.  Leave me a comment and let me know what you think.  Which one do you like best?

Until next time, Happy Crafting!
