Winter Holiday Punch Art Tag Set!

Today I'm posting the second project from Craft Project Central.  These cute holiday punch art tags were created by Yapha Mason and you can find the tutorial for them at Craft Project Central.  Just a reminder that I am giving away one FREE monthly subscription for the month of December to Craft Project Central.  That's 10 tutorials for free!  I will give you all the details mid December.  :)


Punch art is a fun way to create images that you may not have stamps for, as well a great way to get extra mileage out of your punches. In this project we will create punch art images for Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa, and New Year’s Eve. Each of these images is part of a cute tag, and all of the tags fit nicely in a decorative box. Includes a matching card for gift giving. These fun punch art designs are great for a club or a class, or just a fun winter afternoon of crafting.

Good to the Last Bite

Well, I have to say I'm a bit behind this week!  This was supposed to post Tuesday morning and it's not even close to that.  I don't know how so many ladies can work 30+ hours a week and keep plugging away with all of their card making/scrap booking, etc.  I've been busy trying to get ready for a craft show with all my other responsibilities too, and I sure would like some sleep!  Guess that's the way it goes when I procrastinate too much. :(  

Anyway I came up with these goody bags for this week's Try Stampin' on Tuesday sketch challenge and I'm also selling them at the craft show.  They are pretty quick and easy to make, especially the tags.  One of my daughters is a nanny and she asked if she could have a couple for her kids if there were any left over.  That's when I told her I was making last month's paper pumpkin kit for them.  She was happy with that. :) 


Make sure you head over to Try Stampin' on Tuesday to see all the other fun things the designers have created for you.  Make sure you play along too. :)


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Happy Wonderful Christmas

Wow, I can't believe it's Friday already!  Where did this week go?  I don't know, but I won't complain either. :)  Since it's Friday I have another project for you. Yup, a project, not a card.  That's pretty unusual for me, but that's what this week's Friday Mashup is all about.  This week our challenge is from Cindy, and here's the fun challenge she has for us...


Create a "Tag for a Bottle, Box or Bag". 
Create a project with "Bling". 
or Mash it Up! and create a "Tag with Bling".

For once I got a little bit ahead with all my challenges because I was up north last weekend...yea!  Since I had a bottle of sparkling red grape juice I decided to make a tag for a bottle.



It calls for bling so I went with a little bit of gold embossed leaves and pearls on the ribbon and wreath.  Not what I'd normally use for bling, but since I didn't have my whole stamping stash with me I used what I did have...and I'm happy with how it turned out. :)  Make sure you head over to the Friday Mashup HERE to see the other great projects from the design team.  If you get a chance play along too.  We'd love to see what you create!


I had to add a little something else to the back and decided to use a few snowflakes and the "to" and "from" stamps.  Hey they have to know who the gift is from right? lol


Thanks for looking and have a great day!

Ornament Gift Tags

Yikes!  I almost forgot to finish my post for today.  I always schedule my "Try Stampin' on Tuesday" posts early, but remembered just before I went to bed that I had it scheduled with pictures, but didn't actually type anything for you to read! lol  So today I want to show you the gift tags that I made for this "challenge", which was also one of the projects the ladies made at my open house in November.  Yes, these are simple gift tags and that's why I love them.  After I looked at all the other designers' tags I started to worry because theirs are all SO beautiful!  I actually feel kind of lazy with these, but I'll explain why.  I guess I'm just a bit of a Scrooge, or maybe a Grinch.  Don't get me wrong...I love Christmas, but I HATE to shop for it and HATE wrapping presents.  Yes, I like the tree and all the present wrapped beneath it, but wish I could just snap my fingers and have the shopping and gift wrapping done!  Thankfully I have two daughters who LOVE to shop and know how to get a bargain (even when it's not black Friday! lol).  They are my Christmas shoppers, especially my oldest.  She has done it for quite a few years (thank you, Erica!!!!).  So how do gift tags fit into this.  Well without gift tags (and sometimes notes on them) I would have NO idea whose gift is whose, so I have to use gift tags.  These are so easy to make and you can make them in any color you want.  You can even check out the wrapping paper you have and match it to that.  So on to the pics and a few quick instructions on how to make these easy gift tags if you're not sure (and I even made a handy little box to store them in using the Envelope Punch Board. :)





To make the box you cut a piece of card stock at 4 1/2" x 4 1/2".  Run it through the Big Shot in an embossing folder (I used Pretty Print).  Then punch and score with the Envelope Punch Board at 1 3/4" on all four sides.  Repeat that step again, but you punch and score at 2 1/2" on all four sides.  Fold along all the score lines, snip the top corners out completely as shown, but only slit the bottom corners as shown.  Tape it all together except the top which you can tuck beneath the band that is wrapped around the box and finished off with another punched out ornament.  And now you have a small mini box to store your gift tags in.






Here is a collage showing the steps of how I made these simple gift tags if you're not sure how I did it.  First stamp your ornament at the bottom of a small piece of card stock.  Next fold the card stock in half just above the top of the ornament and use a bone folder to crease it well.  Then slide it into the ornament punch, but leave just a bit of empty space at the top of the punch.  If you don't leave the space you'll lose your fold and punch out two pieces of paper instead of one that's folded.  Last is your cute little ornament gift tag.  Simple right? :)  Now head on over to Try Stampin' on Tuesday to see the gift tags the other designers made.  Then show us what you came up with.


Thanks for looking and have a great day!
