Christmas Tags Galore

Hi Crafty Friends,
Have you been wrapping your Christmas Presents? Do you want to make your packages extra special? Add a tag made with the darling Brass & Bliss Holiday Tags 5514-02D. I made four tags featuring Brass & Bliss In Case You Get Cold Stamp Set 3499-01 and Christmas Inchies Stamp Set 3332. I stenciled the backgrounds of each to add some texture and dimension.

Make Crafty Friends Q & A:
Q: How do you label your presents? Tags? Cards? Stickers?
A: Me? Tags

Tag Set #1: Bokeh Circles & Snowmen

Step #1: I started by stenciling the Brass & Bliss Bokeh Stencil 4204 with Brass & Bliss Color Fuse Crimson Ink. Then, for the second layer of circles I used foil paste and foiled the circles with green foil.



Step #2: I die cut my background using Brass & Bliss Large and Medium sized tags from the Brass & Bliss Holiday Tags 5514-02D. I colored up my snowmen with Copic Sketch Markers to match my background.
Step #3: I add some fun ribbons to the top of my tags and a sentiment from the Brass & Bliss Christmas Phrases Large/Small 3328.

Tags Set #2: Down the Chimney

Step #4: For my second set of tags I used the Brass & Bliss Repeating Bricks Stencil 4102 with white Embossing Paste to make a 3-D brick pattern on red cardstock paper.
Step #5: I used the Brass & Bliss Medium and Small Holiday Tags 5514-02D and die cut my brick background. Then, I colored up the cute Brass & Bliss Christmas Inchies 3332 characters with Copic Sketch Markers.

Step #6: I stamped the Brass & Bliss Christmas Phrases Large/Small 3328 on various circles and rectangles and match the perfect circle to one of the tags. Next, I added my characters, fun green silk ribbon and enamel dots to my tags.
