TAGS, the perfect little gifts

As the school year comes to a close and we are in need of lots of little gifts and gestures, I love to have a stash of tags ready. I will group them in sets of 6, 8 or 10 and pack them in a clear bag with a beautiful ribbon. Tadaaa… a small gift for any occasion is ready. One of my favourite sets for tags and cards is All Year Round. It has a stamp for almost every occasion and can be dressed up or down depending on the look you want to achieve. I love to let these stamps speak for themselves and just add a few sparkles here and there. This is what I came up with today:

I cut the sentiment off and matted the picture. To the heart I added part of the sentiment.

I used a black marker to colour the snowman and jack o’ lantern and framed it. A mini piece of orange card stock makes a pretty snowman’s nose.

Some more matting and use of little paper dots. They look great with Helmar liquid scrap dots, popping up for dimension.

Here I used dimensional glaze (for the bunny’s tail and rattle) and glitter to make it sparkle.

Hope you feel inspired to make some tag sets. Make a whole bunch of sets ahead. They really come in handy when you suddenly have to come up with a small gift.

Happy stamping,

love, Bettina
