Hi! It's Sandie here today and I am sharing how I make my tags that I use on Christmas gifts

Supplies

Plain White card
Stamps - Waltzingmouse Stamps : Santa's Coming to Town
Distress Inks - Antique Linen and Brushed Corduroy
Tags Dies
Blending tool or sponge dauber
Twine
Ribbon
Die cutting machine

Ct1

Using the cuttlebug or similar die cutting machine cut all 3 tags, lining them up largest to smallest.

Ct2

To get the most out of your card, cut the next 3 tags from from smallest to largest.

Ct3

Place the die back over the tags and sponge some Antique Linen distress ink onto the card with a blending tool.

Ct4

When you remove the die, there is a white border all around.

Ct5

Taking the Antique Linen again, stamp Santa silhouette

Ct6

Taking the Brushed Corduroy ink, stamp the sentiment.

Ct7

Punch a hole at the top of the tag.

Ct8

Thread ribbon through the hole, ensuring the tails are long enough to tie around the gift.

Ct9

Make the smaller tags using a similar design and thread twine through a smaller hole at the top of them.

The tags are lovely, but I don't like the sentiment. In English we don't peek, we peep, or look. We always used to write "Don't open until Christmas Day " or whatever the special day was.
