Countdown Day 4: Tag Trio – MFT Stamps

Welcome to day 4! Today, I made some sweet holiday tags using the Surprise Stitched Tag Die-namics. There are multiple ways to use this die set which makes it very versatile and a good supply for your stash. I’m showing you three versions in my inspiration below.

STEP-BY-STEP INSTRUCTIONS

Snowman shaker tag:
- Create a shaker frame from red cardstock using the largest and middle size tag in the set. Create the backer from the largest die in the set.
- Adhere a layer of acetate with double-sided scor tape.
- Die cut and assemble the snowman from the Snow Buddy Die-namics. Adhere on top.
- Inside the shaker, add a layer of patterned paper from the Colorful Christmas paper pad. On top, add shaker bits – glitter, silver sequins, and snowflakes from my stash. Close the shaker tag up.
- Stamp and white heat emboss a sentiment from Cool Christmas Greetings. Die cut with a banner die and layer with a piece of plaid pattern paper.
Christmas Tree tag:
- Die cut a piece of patterned paper from the Colorful Christmas paper pad. Adhere to another layer of scrap cardstock for additional sturdiness.
- Die cut the middle layer from vellum.
- Die cut the trees from various cardstock. Assemble the trees on top of the vellum layer.
- Hide glue behind the trees to adhere the vellum to the tag.
- White heat emboss a sentiment from Cool Christmas Greetings underneath the trees and embellish with sparkling sequins.
Tree tag:
- Die cut red cardstock with the largest tag die and the smallest die. The smallest die doesn’t cut all the way through, but creates a little door where you can hide a sentiment or critter inside of your tag.
- Back the tag with another piece of patterned paper from the Colorful Christmas paper pad.
- On top, adhere a tree and add some dimension with copic markers.
- Embellish with a white paint pen for snow and sequins.
