Christmas Tags with Dies R Us

Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with some fun, quick and easy Christmas tags.

I am using dies from Find It Trading  - Yvonne Creations called Sweet Christmas Candy along with a few other dies.

I created 4 tags for this post but, I have to say actually created about 10 altogether. I simply repeated some of the designs. This project is perfect for all those scraps you may have left. I stuck to traditional colors but, you can use whatever colors you love.

Let's get started!

I gathered all the materials I would be needing for the project. I die cut some tags and all the candy pieces. I trimmed some baker's twine into about 12" lengths.  

Next, I ran all the candy pieces and the tag reinforcers through my Xyron 1" sticker maker. I also placed 2 sentiments onto an acrylic block and pull my Versafine Onyx Black ink.

  

Tag #1 - Joy

I added the reinforcer to the tag hole. Then I placed the letter J one of the candy bases followed by the letter Y. I topped the candy with the striped piece and I added the litter tie ends of the candy. Stamped the sentiment to the bottom of the tag and added the red twine to the top.

  

Tag # 2 Candy Canes

I added the red reinforcer to the tag hole. I then layered the candy canes and placed them onto the tag. alternating the red and green. I stamped the sentiment to the bottom and added the green twine to the top. 

Tag # 3 

I added the red reinforcer to the tag hole. I then just layered the green sprigs on top of each other. Next, I created the lollipops - cutting some of the sticks shorter. I then added the lollipops to the sprigs. turning them into Christmas ornaments off a branch - making sure to alternate the colors.  Stamped the sentiment at the bottom and added some green twine.

 

Tag # 4 - Gifts

I added the green reinforcer to the tag hole. simply layered all the candies strips onto the white bases. I added the ties for the candy on top of them to create the effect of bows. I trimmed the spiral cady layer in half for bow too.  I then placed them all onto the tag. I stamped the sentiment and add the red twine to the top.

For a finishing touch, I added some Wink of Stella in Clear Glitter to all the die cuts.

Now all the tags are complete!

Merry Christmas Card with Dies R Us

Hello Crafty Friends - I am here with a quick minimal stamping card.

It's mostly die-cutting. But, that's what makes it quick and easy. 

You can assembly line this card for sending out several of them.

Let's get started!

I gather all the materials for creating the card.  I then die the string of light 3x, several white bulbs, and several holographic bulbs in several colors. I die cut two sentiment banners and created a small frame using a rectangle die. I pulled out two pieces of colored cardstock and one white. Along with a side folding card base.

 

Next, I layered the white bulbs onto the string of lights, followed by the color bulbs. I repeated this to all the strings of light.

 

Then, I decided on my placement for the lights. I adhered the lights to the back of the frame. I overlapped some of the light onto the frame for a touch of whimsy.

 

I adhered the frame onto the white cardstock panel. I then trimmed off the extra white cardstock. Leaving just the red frame edge. Next, I adhered the red frame panel onto a green panel. I adhered the card front panel onto the card base.

 

I stamped the sentiment onto the white cardstock banner and adhered it onto the red glitter banner. I adhered the sentiment banner onto the center of the card front using foam adhesive.

 

Now - the card is complete!

  

Materials Used:

Lawn Fawn: Mini String of Lights
