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

Yoga/Meditation Frame

Mediation, Yoga and Pilates, some of my favorite exercises and relaxation go too's, so I decided to make a frame using a Stamping Bella Stamp called Curvy Girl, Namaste for my room. I chose a wooden frame and decided not to paint it, just sanded it back a little and then stuck on a piece of Vicki Boutin The little things 12x12 paper. The inside of the frame piece, I covered in white cardstock and took a piece of little things paper and embossed it with a favourite art word stencil, ensuring the word Grateful was used. I then punched the corners with a corner punch. Using my gel plate and stamps zodiac and calendar, I firstly painted the gel plate and smoothed it out with my brayer before stamping the images. For those that have used this technique before, rather than taking my frame and placing it on the Gel Plate to lift the image, I instead used the stamp itself on the frame.  Then I used my number stencil with the Nuvo mousse in blue, and for the words, I first us...

Polystyrene circle base and Lemon Craft Silence Papers

When I was sent this polystyrene circle base, at first I thought, "what does Julie expect me to do with this", so a little treat of white chocolate put me in a head space to create a picture perfect scenery using the Lemon Craft Silence paper collection, which is just so pretty. This project required some fussy cutting, and you know I am not a huge fan of fussy cutting, although my patience with this didn't wear thin, and I actually enjoyed it, maybe it was the combination of pretty papers, coffee and yes, as mentioned the white chocolate :-)  Firstly I started by tracing the circle base on one of the papers that already had a slight pink tinge through it, and then added more pink using the Tim Holtz spun sugar distress ink, this really made the paper pop. Once that was done, I added a strip of paper on the bottom of the base to add some colour. I then added some Webster fabric ribbon found in my stash that was just perfect for this project. I added a strip at the top of...
