Adventures in Kraft

Hello.

After my krafty Christmas card last week i ventured into kraft tags this week.

I loved making these very easy gift tags .

These are going on my children's main Christmas presents.

I used some shop bought kraft tags and simply heat embossed in gold some of the smaller images from Lawn fawn Let it snow stamp set.

Once they were all done i die cut one each of their initials from gold card using lawn fawns abc dies and pierced a small hole and attached some jump rings.

I  fixed it to the tag using some gold lawn fawn twine.

I plan to add some  home made charms to these also just haven't had the time.

You could add beads or shrink plastic as in Tara's post here.

Although the let it snow stamp set is out of stock you can use any smaller stamp images to create the same look.

Thanks for looking.

Sparkle and shine

Hello.

I was playing with my Neat and tangled stamps  and thought id show two ways to use the Sparkle and shine set.

It screams out to me as a girly set so i set about changing that and made a girl and boy card.

My first card is more feminine and uses the large diamond stamp.

I stamped the diamond onto to some craft metal to make it a bit blingy ...obviously its a sapphire ;)

I also stamped one of the smaller diamond is versamark onto the panel for a watermark effect,

Then added some sequins to finish.

The next card is my boy card.

I picked a few ink colours that i thought would work well together Gray, orange, green and blue.

I the stamps the different sized stars in each colour randomly.

Then  i used the Coles ABC dies from Lawn fawn, you can use any alpha dies for this.

I die cut the word son and added some dark glitter card behind.

Thanks for looking.
