For this first project, I pulled out a trusty cardboard gift box (Michael's carries them in a variety of sizes) and dressed it up with lots of goodies from the Tinsel & Tags kit! I started out with one of the papers from the pattern pack, adhering it to the top of the box. Next, I wrapped the lid with some of the gorgeous Red Ticking Stripe Cotton Ribbon from the kit, but you'll notice that there is a red card stock tag threaded onto the ribbon! It was cut with a die from the Tinsel & Tags Basics die collection. Then I used the Tinsel & Tags Scenery die collection to create all those layers that are adhered to the tag inside the dome. I ran each layer through my xyron and then coated them wtih glitter before adhering them all together with foam adhesive. The back layer is aqua mist card stock, to create a blue sky (behind it, is another white layer to let the "snowflakes" in the aqua layer show up) and I die cut an extra kraft layer with the little deer, trimmed him off and added him over the top of the glittered deer layer.
All of that is tucked securely under one of the Clear Tag Globe Halves that comes in the kit! I just adhered it to the red tag layer with a circle of glossy accents all the way around.
Another of the Tinsel & Tags Scenery dies was used to cut out the banner and it was stamped with images from the Tinsel & Tags stamp set. It's adhered to the box lid with foam adhesive.
The above photo gives you a little closer look inside the globe!
Next up, I have a couple cards to show you using elements from the kit, starting with this cheery NOEL card!
I used several of the stamps from the main stamp set along with a tag die from the Basics die collection, to create this cute tag. Behind it, I stamped a bow from the set and adhered some of the Tiffany Blue Adhesive Scalloped Border Trim from the kit on top. I tied a bit of twine from my stash on the tag and popped it on top of the whole thing.
In the lower left corner, I stamped several images from the Tinsel & Tags Sprigs stamp set for a finishing touch.
Included in the paper pad, are several pages of pre-printed, ready to cut and use tags, including the large one you see here! They were also printed with a line around them, making it super easy to position one of the coordinating dies inside the white line, and get a perfectly centered die cut every time! Here, I used the scalloped circle die to cut out the tag and adhered it to the aqua tag layer.
Next, I used various stamps and dies from the two stamp sets to add little bits and bobs as accents.
The tag was threaded on a strip of Christmas tree patterned paper from the paper pad and the whole thing was adhered to a berry sorbet card base.
One more extra little thing to show you before I go......it's seriously so easy to use these pre-printed tags! Here, I die cut one using the tag die and threaded it on some of the ticking striped ribbon from the kit and this tag is ready to be popped on a Christmas gift when I'm ready to start wrapping! And there are several of these -- and in two sizes -- that you can use!
In fact, I've got some more tags to share with you in a couple days, using the smaller tags.....I think you're gonna like them! I hope you'll stop back by to check them out!
That's it for now, but be sure to check out all of the other Tinsel & Tags projects from the Make It Market team!
