Gift Wrap Coordinated Birthday Tags

I had to buy some birthday gifts for the little's in our family and thought, "why not incorporate the gift wrap into my tags?".  I used some of my alpha dies along with my tag dies from Scrapbookcom to accomplish this and it was so easy.

I've had the nested Jumbo tag dies from Scrapbookcom in my stash for years and use them all the time.

They're my go-to, with so many different sizes to choose from. They're also currently half price as part of the International Scrapbook Day sale going on!

I cut 4 of the tag dies on white cardstock with my Platinum 6, so I could adhere my trimmed gift wrap inbetween two of them and write a personal note on the back.

The alphabet dies that I used are called "Joyful" and I used the smaller set included in the package.

I ran these through my Platinum 6, lining the letters up on my tag die cut to create the names, Houston and Harper.

I love the funky design of those dies! Next, I did some ink blending around the outside of my die using my Catherine Pooler Inks. The balloons are from a stitching die of the month set from Spellbinders. I had a few balloons left over from a previous project, but Scrapbookcom also has a selection of balloon dies here.

This is such a cool way to add gift wrap to your tags. I have a reel over on Instagram if you'd like to see the gift tags paired with the gifts. Unfortunately, I didn't get an extra photo of the wrapped gifts.

Party Tags for Catherine Pooler Snowrific Release

Eeeek, I'm so excited! The Catherine Pooler Snow-rific Birthday release is live for the entire blogosphere! Party time! This release has so many amazing products that fill that winter gap but also new birthday things that you're going to want in your craft space. I have a pair of party tags to share with you today, so I hope you'll stick around for a minute. (As of this writing, I did not have access to direct product links but any highlighted link will take you directly to the new release until I can get updated links.)

Do you typically purchase bundles or just a few things that catch your eye? You might want to spring for the whole thing this time, I'm just sayin'. It's time to treat yourself! Look at all the fun you will have!

I had SOOOO much fun making these tags. I had so many ideas popping and just threw lots of things in the mix. I'm heavily relying on the Party Tag die set for these tags. That small die with all the holes? It makes confetti! Not only that, but I saw Daniel West make a card where he used it to cut a couple rows of holes on his card panel and it looked very cool.

The tag die above breaks off into several pieces; a tag frame, a rectangle frame and a scalloped frame, all of which can be used separately or together.

For my tag below, I used papers from the Daily Grind paper pack. It's one of my faves and that dotted paper reminded me of confetti. I cut my paper with the tag base die then embossed a cut using the rectangle frame, ink blending it lightly before embossing. 

For my cupcake, I used the Extra Frosting stamp and die set using a variety of inks which will all be listed at the end of this post. I ink blended around my cupcake liner for more of a shadow effect. All of these elements were popped up on my tag base with adhesive foam.

Next, I made a shaker tag. I die cut 1 tag base with white cardstock and 1 tag base with a piece of acetate. I lined up my tag base and added the scalloped frame in the center to die cut 2 more things that would leave the center exposed; white cardstock and a piece of adhesive foam sheet.

I stamped my sentiment on the first white tag base that I cut, using masking tape for the ink colored word "favorite". Then I layered the cut adhesive sheet on top, peeling the backing off the back side and adhering to my white base. Make some confetti cuts with the confetti die but not too much (I did add too much!) otherwise, it can get too packed and won't distribute as well when shaking. Once you've centered your confetti in the middle, adhere your acrylic cut. Lastly, carefully apply adhesive to your final  piece, the scalloped white tag.

IMPORTANT: Do not use glue on your adhesive sheet. It will work better to use an adhesive runner or double sided adhesive strips. 

I colored up a cupcake but trimmed the cupcake liner to look more like a bon-bon at the base of my tag. I think it's so cute! 

I can't say enough good things about this release and am thrilled to be invited as a guest embassador this month. Thanks so much for stopping in. I'd love to know what your favorite thing is in the new release. Tell me in the comment section!  See you next time.

Terri
