Scrapbook Tags

These are some tags I recently made for scrapbooking.

The colors on the baby tag are SU Certainly Celery and So Saffron, ink is celery too. The cutouts were done on the Cricut (all these tags are too). Stamps are SU Classic Alphabet and I can't remember which set the diaper pins were...
This birthday tag is cutout again on the Cricut. Chocolate chip paper and ink, also creamy caramel and real red markers. The cherry on the cupcake is a clear dew drop/skittle. The stamp set is a clear set I had gotten a while back.

I love this House Mouse stamp, but I have such a hard time using them unless it's for a card, but I like the way it turned out with this tag. Paper is again SU Certainly Celery, ribbon is SU Lovely lilac. The bottom egg is highlighted with clear stickles.

This last tag is I think my favorite. The stamp is SU By Land and Crosshatch background stamp. Colors are Only Orange and Not Quite Navy. I embossed the car by inking first with Versamark, then Navy and used clear embossing powder. The eyelet is a jumbo eyelet, which I've just recently started using, but they work great for these!


I hope you like these and happy stamping!

Tag Time

I can't believe we're already 12 days into November! Thanksgiving is coming so fast, and then it will be time for Christmas! I love Christmas. I've always laughed at my mom for being a decorating nut around that time, but since having a little boy myself who is now almost 4, I find myself doing the same thing. So in honor of the impending season, here are two gift tags I made for some special gifts.This first one was made from a cricut tag (2 parts). The tree is embossed in gold, and the holly is just stamped and then accented with burgundy Stickles. It's raised with half of a pop-dot.

This second tag I really like. It's hard to tell from the picture, but the snowman has been embossed with clear embossing powder and then watercolored in for detail. I inked the snowman first with blue pigment ink and then immediately into Versamark before embossing. I also used the same cricut tag. I think it was from the Christmas Cheer cartridge.
I hope these ideas are inspiring and help you get in the Christmas mood!
Happy stamping!
