Project of the Week ~ Christmas Gift Tags

A few weeks ago Wendy, owner of Repeat Impressions started a new weekly post and it’s called Project of the Week. Each one of the Rock Star Designers come up with a project and show/tell how the project is done.

I wanted to do some fancy gift tags for my Christmas presents this year because I plan to wrap my packages in plain kraft paper. What I like about this is that I started this project before most of the presents have even been bought — so when it’s time to wrap - I’ll have this part of my Christmas done. I made 20 tags and it didn’t take too much time.

1. I die cut 20 kraft tags (tags can be purchased). The tags I die cut are about 7 inches tall. Then I cut about 25 tags from various designer paper.

2. Cut only the 25 designer paper tags into 2 inch strips.

3. Stamp and color Repeat Impressions “Poinsettias” and “Do Not Open…”

4. Use a Copic Spica Glitter Pen to highlight leaves and poinsettias.

3. Mix and Match the cut strips to glue onto the kraft tags.

4. Add a few embellishments including tie ribbons and twine.

The main thing that made this easy was getting all the elements together and then doing the tags assembly style.

Hope this inspires you to get a head start on special tags or gets you to thinking about your Christmas card list - Check out Wendy’s selection of fantastic Christmas Stamps here at Repeat Impressions.

Thanks for looking at my project - have a HAPPY stamping day!
