Hey there! It's my turn to share a project for The Greetery and I've got a sweet gift tag set to show you!
For awhile now, I've been wanting to use the hoopla dies and such to make a set of little embroidery-inspired all-occasion gift tags. I finally got around to making them and they turned out so darling! I stamped the to/from on the back of the larger ones, and the smaller ones I'll use by adding onto packages more as an embellishment with the bow and I can also just write the to: info on the back.
I used the Rose Tapestry stencils to create the main images for each tag. I just stenciled one panel and then used the Hoopla and Inserts dies to cut the floral panel apart. Before I die cut it though, I ran it through my die cutting machine with the Aida Cloth Texture Plate, to give it a more realistic touch.
I used some of the dies from Floral Sampler to add some various sprigs and leaves to some of the tags and layered up a couple of them, by using the Four Square Tags die and the Four Square Holiday Tags stamp set along with the hoops. It was fun to pull together a variety of tags....some more layered and some less....and I can't wait to use them on some birthday and "just because" gifts this spring and summer!
PRO TIP: You can adhere your hoop directly to the Four Square tag so that it's position is stationary -- as I did with the tag on the bottom left -- or you can just tie your hoop to the top of the Four Square tag so that it swings and moves -- as I did with the tag on the bottom right. Both work great. One just has a bit more movement and a slightly more interactive feel, because when hanging on a gift bag (for instance), the recipient has to swing the hoop over a bit, to see the full sentiment.
Hope this has given you some inspiration to pull out the Hoopla collection of goodies and make some for yourself!
