Make your gift tags a breeze this year. With my creative juices flowing, I decided to step out of the box and do non traditional holiday colors for my tag. Since I’ve been living in Florida and we seem to only have one season, making brighter holiday cards and tags has become a thing for me. LOL

By using Hero Arts Reactive Inks, being super colorful and bright is easy. For my color combo I used colors which you would see in a sun set. The warm shades of yellow, oranges and pinks is perfect. There is a die that cuts greenery for your tags, however for my tag, Hero Arts Charcoal ink worked magically.

Remember that reactive inks reactive with water. Instead of water, I used the Hero Arts Iridescent Shimmer Spray. I really wish you could see the sparkle on this tag.

I have a tutorial sharing how this tag came together. You can watch it here on the blog or over on my Youtube channel.

For my extra projects, I used the new Hero Arts Mug Tag Fancy die. I mean how cute is this mug of hot chocolate look? When the weather gets a little chilly here in Florida, I love a great mug of hot chocolate.

The inks I used on my mugs were Hero Arts Crimson, Cranberry, Fresh Lawn, Pine, Lemon Yellow and Spicy Mustard. Making pretty ombre mugs makes gift giving fun.

These tags have a TON of sparkle by using the shimmer mist and the Hero Arts Snowflake Glitter.

Thanks for stopping by today. Next on the hopis Daniel. Don’t forget to comment for a chance to win one of the gift certificates. Have a great day and I’ll see you back here soon.

Gina K. Designs Holiday Hexagons and Sentimental Holiday

October 21, 2020

Hey everyone. I’m super excited to be sharing Gina K. Designs Holiday Hexagons and Sentimental Holiday stamp sets. These stamp sets are full of holiday spirits and both stamp sets work perfectly together. Let’s check out the card I made.

Keeping in the traditional holiday colors I used Gina K. Designs Grass Green and Coral Reef with a pop of gold. I am so in love with how this card turned out. Stamping the snowflakes in a solid color and then am ombre’ of both colors really makes a statement. Popping up a gold snowflake in the center of the panel really shows the elegant design of this stamp set.

Here’s a few closeups of the cards. Filling in around the snowflakes with the sequin shaped stamps I was able to add just a touch more gold to the card.

We also need tags for the holidays right? So why not create one your gift recipient will love. On this tag I used the Sentimental Holiday stamp set. Keeping with the same color combination as the card above this tag is a sure winner. This stamp set is full of beautiful sentiments for all your holiday cards and tags.

Matching my tag also to my card keeps my gift giving simple and stylish.

Thanks for stopping by today. Make sure to head on over to shop the new release at Gina K. Designs. Gina also released her stunning new Sparkle and Shine kit that would work fabulously with the Gina K. Designs Holiday Hexagons and Sentimental Holiday sets as well. Really the opportunity for gorgeous cards are right at your finger tips with Gina K. Designs products.

25 Days Of Christmas Tags

November 12, 2019

Hey peeps. I’m participating in the 25 Days of Christmas Tags with Tracy McNeely. I think this is second time I’ve participated and it is so much fun. Today the Pink and Main team is sharing tags with you today. I love a great holiday tag and this one is no exception. I used the Deck The Palms stamp set from Pink and Main along with the Be Merry 6×6 paper pad. This paper pad and stamp set will create beautiful tags for your holiday gifts.

Pink and Main Holiday tag

For my tag, I cut the shape using a die cut. Next I trimmed down a piece of paper from the Be Merry 6×6 paper pad to fit the front of my tag. I used a sentiment from the Deck the Palms stamp set to stamp the sentiment and adhered this panel to the tag base. Next I stamped out the adorable image in black ink and colored it with my Copic markers. Using the coordinating die, I cut out the image and popped it on the tag using foam squares. All that was left was to add some pretty ribbon to the top of my tag and my tag was finished.

Here is a close up of how cute this little tag is. Oh I did add a little sparkle around the wreath along with glossy accents. This helps keep the image fun and festive.

I can’t wait to see all the tags everyone is making. All the details for the 25 Days of Holiday Tags is over on Tracey’s blog. Have a great day everyone I’ll see you back here soon.

25 Days of Christmas Tags

November 13, 2018

Hey peeps. I’m participating in the 25 Days Of Christmas Tags this year and I’m super excited. I have seen some amazing tags and the inspiration is overwhelming (in a good way). WOW so many talented people in this crafty community. Today Technique Tuesday is the sponsor.

For my tag today I’m using the Technique Tuesday Hello Winter stamp set and the Sweater Weather crafting die cut. I love the cozy feeling of this shaker tag.

I started off by cutting out the back of the tag and using the Sweater Weather crafting die to make a festive pattern on this piece. Next I stamped the Hello Winter sentiment from the Hello Winter stamp set at the top portion of the tag. I colored out my bomber jacket with Copic markers and used Tulip puffy paint for the fur around the hood. I used black Nuvo drops for the buttons.

I die cut out the top portion of my tag to create a top for the shaker elements. I filled the tag with red, blue, silver and white sequins to keep everything within the color hue I was using. I adhered down my top with double sided foam tape to give it some dimension. All that was left was to add a top piece for the ribbon and twine to go through and tie all the ribbon and twine into a few bows. I adhered my bomber jacket to the shaker tag with adhesive.

Thanks for stopping by today. Make sure to swing by Tracey’s blog to see all the beautiful tags that were created for today.
