How to Use – Merriest Trees Dies to Make Christmas Tags

How to Use – Merriest Trees Dies to Make Christmas Tags – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I made two versions of this Christmas Tree Tag. The one above is using only the dies. I cut the tree shape from the “A Walk in the Forest” designer series paper (DSP). I used a white pen to highlight the lights, which helped to bring the whole piece together.

Version 2

The tag below is stamped in Garden Green ink with white heat embossing to create the effect of snow. I kept to the primary colours, Real Red, Daffodil Delight and Azure Afternoon (blue) for my baubles. Don’t they look cute?

How to Make a Tag Shake

How to Make a Tag Shake – Celebrate with Tags – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK

I love this cute Christmas Tag. The sequins are from my own stash. I have a ton of them and am on a mission to use them. The Celebration Tags dies make this cute pocket. I cut out the front and added some acetate to turn it into a shaker tag. The paper is the Storybook Gnomes and I love this Pacific Point blue with the little snowflakes.

Below you can see a different version in Garden Green. Which do you prefer?

Make a Large Christmas Tag With Me

Make a Large Christmas Tag With Me – Merriest Moments – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demo – Lincoln UK.

I like big tags such as this one as they can double as a Christmas card as well. Two for the price of one, can’t be bad. This tag is actually the size of an A6 card front. I’ve rounded the top edges for some extra interest.

I’ve used the Painted Christmas designer series paper which makes a great background. The flowers and leaves were all stamped in one go and cut out together which means making this tag is easy and simple.

Make Your Own Oversized Christmas Tag

Make Your Own Oversized Christmas Tag – Merriest Moments – Crafting with Ashee – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator – Lincoln UK.

I love this tag, it is a card and tag all in one. It is totally hand-stamped and uses no designer series paper (DSP). This means I can tailor the colours and design to my personal preference. I’ve used the gilded gems in places to give it that necessary bling for Christmas. The combination of Shaded Spruce (green) and Cherry Cobbler really works for me. They are traditional Christmas colours but still look fresh and vibrant together.

Make an Oversized Tag for Christmas – Stampin’ Up!

Make an Oversized Tag for Christmas – Snowflake Splendour – Independent Stampin’ Up! Demonstrator based in Lincoln UK

I made an oversize tag last year and decided to do one again. I love that it can double as a tag and a Christmas card. The paper is of course my favourite Snowflake Splendour. This is the last project I have to share with you using this paper and will be really sad to see it go. I love the colouring, the variations of blues and purples together.

So have you finished all your Christmas shopping? I am writing this blog on 4th November as England is due to go back into Lockdown for 4 weeks. I hope that by the time this goes live we will be out of it and hopefully seeing some light at the end of the tunnell.

Golden Honey Bee Box – Stampin’ Up!

I have this gorgeous little side opening gift box to share with you today. This uses the Golden Honey Designer Series Paper (DSP) from the Sale-a-bration catalogue.

This paper is gorgeous. It is black and white with gold foiling on one side. It is very elegant. The black and white side is perfect for male cards. This paper coordinates with Honey Bee Bundle in the new catalogue.

This box is a cute side opening box. The sentiment is simple and I heat embossed it with gold embossing powder to match the paper. It is punched out using the Label Me Fancy punch which actually can punch not just the shape but also the hole for the twine.

Measurements

Golden Honey DSP – 7″ X 8 1/2″
- Scored on 8 1/2″ side at 1″, 4″, 5″, 8″
- Scored on 7″ side at 1″, 2″, 6″

This box can be stored flat if you don’t seal the base and therefore take up little storage space. I’ve used two different patterns here. Which one do you prefer?

As always there is a supply list and video tutorial below. Thank you for dropping by and until next time, Enjoy Being Creative!!

Oversized Merry Christmas Tag – Stampin’ Up!

I have this lovely oversized Merry Christmas tag to share with you today. This tag can double as a card and tag as there is lots of space on the back to write your message. It is big and bold and yet has a very vintage feel to it.

The colours in this tag are the Real Red and Garden Green. They have been my number one Christmas colours for a number of years. The background colour is not white but very vanilla which gives a softer more shabby chic feel to the tag.

I have just stamped the tab but you could have heat embossed this with clear embossing powder to give a glossy finish. You could even use silver or gold embossing powder for a more metallic bling effect.

Measurements

Garden Green – 4 1/4″ X 5 3/4″
Toile Tidings Designer Series Paper (DSP) – 4″ X 5 1/2″

Although you can’ see I have stamped the back of the tag with “To & From” from the Memories of Home stamp set. I’ve used both real red cotton ribbon and very vanilla lace trim which adds to the shabby chic feel of the tag.

I have a video tutorial belong as well as the supply list.
