I made two tags using the Crazy Dogs stamp set and coordinating dies. I am a dog person and so this set is dear to me. 

Instructions:

1. I used Pretty Pink Posh's Stitched Tag die to die cut four tags.

2. I ran two of the tags through using the Simon Says Stamp stitched Whirl die and die cut a circle out of the middle of the tag.

3. I sponged Twisted Citron, Salty Ocean, Mermaid Lagoon and Blueprint Sketch distress inks on these two tags.

4. On the other two tags, I sponged Worn Lipstick, Abandoned Coral and Ripe Persimmon distress ink.

5. I used the Tim Holtz's Speckles layering stencil on these two tags and sponged Candied Apple distress ink to add texture to the tags.

6. I stamped two dog image from Crazy Dogs stamp set and copic coloured them. I used the coordinating dies to die cut the image and their eyes and collars. I adhered the eyes and collars on the main image of the dogs using foam adhesives.

7. I adhered the dog images on the pink/red sponged tag and the blue/green tag is adhered on the top using foam adhesives.

8. The sentiment is from an older Simon Says Stamp unfortunately it is retired now. I stamped the sentiment using Simon Says Stamp Intense Black ink on a strip of white cardstock.

9. Finally embellished with Pretty Pink Posh Sparkly Clear sequins and black and white baker's twine.

Here are some closeup of the tags.

25 Days of Christmas Tags with Tracey - Winnie & Walter!

Hello and welcome back to my blog.

I am participating in Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags today as a designer from Winnie & Walter.

The gorgeous Tracey McNeely organises 25 Days of christmas Tags every year. Every day in the month of November there are some gorgeous tags made by some of the talented designers and each day there are prizes to be won from some wonderful sponsors as you can see below.

Here is my tag using Winnie & Walter products.

I have used Winnie & Walter's True Multifaceted Circle Cutaway as my ornament tag. I die cut the multifacted circle die out of gold foil cardstock. I also sponged Candied apple, wilted Violet and Mowed Lawn on a scrap piece of white cardstock and die cut using the same die. I then die cut two circle dies out of white cardstock. I adhered the gold multifaceted die cut on the white circle die cut and inlaid the pieces from sponged multifaceted die cut. I scored on the top of the other white circle and adhered to the back of the multifaceted circle. So you one can write personal message inside.



On the top of the multifaceted circle, I added a gold bow die cut using the Take a Bow cutaway. The sentiment is die cut using In a Word Merry cutaway. I sponged Candied Apple and Wilted Violet distress ink on it and adhered to the tag front. The smaller sentiment is from The Big, the Bold and Merry stamp set stamped using Versafine Black ink on a strip of cardstock sponged with Mowed Lawn distress ink. Finally I have added Sparkly Clear sequins.

25 Days of Christmas Tags with Tracey - Simon Says Stamp

Hello everyone, This is my second post for today. My first post is here!

The gorgeous Tracey McNeely organises 25 Days of christmas Tags every year.

 I have been a participant for past couple of years or more! Every day in the month of November there are some gorgeous tags made by some of the talented designers and each day there are prizes to be won from some wonderful sponsors as you can see below.

Today I am participating as Simon Says Stamp designer. simon Says Stamp is offering one lucky winner $50 gift certificate.

Here is my tag for 25 Days of Christmas Tags!

I have used Simon Says Stamp Christmas Token die to make this tag. The background is created using the largest of the Taylored Expressions Stitched Tag stacklets 3 die set. I die cut one using a script pattern paper and another using chipboard. I adhered the pattern paper on top of the chipboard. I applied Nuvo Silver and Fresh Copper mousse to get the shimmery muted look on the background.



On a piece of scrap paper, I applied a generous amount of Nuvo Sapphire Blue glimmer paste. I let the paste dry and die cut the paper using Christmas Token die. I had to run this die like ten times on my die cutting machine to get a good cut. I adhered this on the tag base. I used Nuvo white crystal drops to fill in the small gaps of the snowflakes. And Doodlebug Sprinkles enamel dots and wooden enamel dots on the rest of the snowflakes. I then tied a lace on the tag with a bow using silver twine from May Arts. Simple, quick and easy tag which can also be used as an ornament.
