Hello everyone,
Welcome to another edition of my Perfect Combos series for Heffy Doodle. It is time for the last minute cards and tags as Christmas is in 10 days. I brought you a tag design which is easy to mass produce but still very special. And I also show you how to incorporate it on a card!
First I die cut the tags from kraft cardstock and stars from white glitter cardstock using the Mini Essential die set. I also cut the banner from white cardstock to hold the sentiment.
Then I stamped the cute trees from the Santa’s Village stamp set and quickly coloured them with Spectrum Noir markers: AG4, AG2, AG1. I used the coordinating dies to cut them out. I stamped a sentiment in red from the Classic sentiment set on the white banners and used my trimmer to make them a bit narrower.
As a finishing touch I used the Firefly Sparkle mix as mini baubles for the trees, added a red glitter eyelet and green twine.
To use this tag as the focal point of a card, I die cut the rectangle die from Mini Essentials from red cardstock and embossed it with the Swiss Dot mini embossing folder. I gave it a white mat and added a piece of patterned paper from the Wildflowers paper pad. I cut a slightly bigger rectangle from green cardstock and framed the patterned paper before popping it up on a white card base.
To make the tag pop out more, I used 3D foam squares under it.
The Mini Essentials die set and the mini embossing folder are all part of the Mini Die Cutting machine special bundle. A perfect gift for Christmas!
I wish you enjoyed today’s inspiration. Don’t forget to show us what you create in our Facebook group, we love to see your cards!
See you soon,
Zsofi
