Christmas Tags

Scrap of Your Life Christmas in July Event - Project Four

This project is quick and easy making Christmas Tags, however be warned, be prepared to have glitter everywhere :-) 



Here is a photo of the goodies I used for this project.



You can purchase all different size tags, so it is up to you what size you want your tags to be, for my project I used 4 1/2 inch tags cut out using my Cricut (Tags, bags and more cartridge) - I LOVE this cartridge and use it quite a lot. The size was ideal for the stamp I wanted to use.

Once I cut out my tags, I placed them on my stamparatus and stamped the Christmas Tree Stamp from Studio Light. I used two different Archival Ink colours for the two tags, Fern Green on one and Olive on the other.




Once I stamped my image, I then stamped the back of the tag using the same Archival Ink and stamped "To and From"using the Ranger Letter Christmas Stamp set.



I then added some special delivery washi, only using the Dec 25 portion of it, cutting off the special delivery and saving that for another project. I then applied Liquid Drops 3D Pearls in Icing Fisher and Brass on the tree to create a bauble effect.

Then I applied Prima Christmas in Country Say it with Crystals in red, green and gold, and A Christmas word sticker from my sticker collection. Love these crystals! 

Once completed, I added the gold trim ribbon to the top of the tag and the Champagne Glass Glitter (Stampin Up) on the edge of the entire tag using a two-way glue pen.

And here are the finished Tags - I really love how quick and easy they were, and how cute they ended up being.





Happy Crafting

Welcome to Mishka's Crafty Creations

Hello, welcome to Mishka's Crafty Creations Blog, where I hope to be able to inspire you with my creations so you can come along with me on my journey! I am super excited to be part of  Scrap Of Your Life  Design Team, a very first for me, so I am a little nervous, however I am looking forward to the next 6 months and the exciting projects and inspiration I can bring to you. A little about me.....I have been crafting since I was around 18 years old (a long time ago) or thereabouts, and not always with paper crafts. I actually started cross-stitching, which then lead me into making teddy bears with embroidery on them. From here I moved into paper crafts, being introduced to Crafty Kids at the time and absolutely loved what they offered. I then met some wonderful, creative people along the way attending various craft workshops and enjoyed being with like minded people and creating to our hearts content. I have developed some wonderful friendships along the way, and created many ...

Tag Cards using Heidi Swapp Old School

These cute tag cards were made using the Studio Light Accordian Tag die, so easy to do as it cuts ready made into the accordion without having to score and stick the tag together. The inside dies also make it perfect to add extra layers which I have done for some of my tag cards. The entire tag cards are made using Heidi Swapp Old School collection, making waves and art district 12x12 paper, stickers and tags, as well a combination of Docrafts  gems and embellishments, paper doily, docrafts denim heart, reedcraft rubons, tiny clips and some ribbon. The base of the cards were cut out in white cardstock, then I used a combination of spearmint and purple palasides cardstock and the 12x12 heidi swapp paper to do the layers. I cut out all the sayings on the Heidi Swapp Urban Stories 12x12, and used a combination of these, with the stickers and tags throughout the cards.  These can now be easily added to other projects or given as a card to someone special to add in their own mini p...

Summer House Frame

Summer isn't too far away, so I decided to make a cute little Summer house using Crate Paper Wonder Wood Veneer Frame and created a Summer Vibe House.  What does Summer mean to you? I remember growing up I used to wait for the IceCream truck, and run out to get an icecream....so my Summer House has a quote Ï scream, you scream we all scream for icecream?, who remembers that as a child? I painted the frame black using Dylusions Paint. Once it was dry, I used a piece of A4 white cardstock and traced around the outside and inside of the frame. The inside was done so it makes it easier to work with, rather than have the frame sitting on top of the cardstock. Using a collection of different papers, Mintay Paradise, Pink Studio Joyful Day and Pretty Little Studios Tags Dream Big collection, I fussy cut images. I stuck these on with double sided tape. The happy tag and I scream you scream was sponged around the edges with archival ink in  chrome yellow. I used a colourblast sun ...
