12 Days of Christmas Tags Series; Day 7

Day 7 of the 12 Days of Christmas Tags Series. For this set of tags, I used a Sizzix Love Story die for the doily, Graphic 45 Tags and Pockets of the Joy to the World collection. These two products were from Jenlee Schoolcraft website where you can find budget friendly crafty products. These products are new and gently used.

I used some blue tag bases that I had in my stash and some snowflake stickers from Anna Griffith that was gifted to me years ago. I don't usually do vintage, but these products were so pretty and I thought, why not play with them!

Be sure to check out the process video on YouTube along with all the other five tags already posted. Leave a comment here, YouTube, Instagram and Facebook for entries into the giveaway at the end of the series. Each comment on the different platforms = one entry. The lucky winner will receive a set of one each of the tags created in this series.

12 Days of Christmas Tags Series, Day Six

We're at the halfway point of my 12 Days of Christmas Tags Series and this one is an easy one. I saw this print then cut project by Marta Silvestre on Cricut Design Space and made no changes except changed the size of them.

Like I said, easy. I don't feel bad about it because that's what crafters do.  Create projects, share them and hope others make them too!

I did make them my own by removing the names on the labels and most importantly, added the fun twine with beads to finish them off.  Click HERE for the DS link.

12 Days of Christmas Tags Series; Day 5

Day Five...have you been following along?  Make sure you're leaving comments for a chance to win a set of one each of the 12 tags made this year.

I used a funky and fun Elf Made stamp set by AALL and Create.   I colored them in using alcohol markers and white pen highlights.

The chipboard tags and vellum sheet were gifted to me by two crafty friends. 

The vellum is glued only under the elves but tied together with a variety of ribbon and a large jingle bell!

Make sure to watch the YouTube video to get some tips on the tags!

TGIF; Thankful Friday #392

It's Friday and another week to be thankful! This week I'm thankful for the start of the Christmas season. I had a busy week with friends and other activities and for that I'm thankful. I'm especially thankful for the paint night I hosted on Tuesday and my family and friends that support my crafty craziness. 

What are you thankful for this week?

Club Scrap Layout With Multiple Photos

I bought some scrapbooking kits from Club Scrap and had fun thinking outside the box with them. My family and I do a virtual marathon during the month of November. Each year, my nephew creates a new logo and I make my patterned paper choices based on it. 

With that being said, these embellishments from Club Scrap worked out perfectly for this occasion.

I wanted to add blue so I did! The sneakers were cut with the Cricut. See how these two pages were created by watching the YouTube process video:

This annual virtual marathon is in its fifth year. We started it during Covid as a way to get together but separately to honor my nephew who passed during that time. We continue the tradition because we are building new memories without any extra travel. We create a challenge on the Map My Walk app so we can share photos, leave comments and track our walks. It's a great event that we all look forward to every year. If you have any questions, let me know.

I got 13 pictures on this spread!  Love that!

12 Days of Christmas Tags Series; Day 4

It's Day Four of the 12 Days of Christmas Tags Series and I've got a sparkly one. I purchased washi tape and snowman brads from Eyelet Outlet when I attended the Expo earlier this year. Actually, the washi tape was purchased two years ago!

The tags were customized and cut with the Cricut. The rest was super easy to put together. Watch the YouTube process video for instructions on how I customized the tag fronts and bases.

So easy but so sparkly! Watch the YouTube video:

What do you think about the brown and blue color combo? I like it.

Reminder: At the end of the series I will give away one set of one each of the 12 tags made this year.  To gain an entry, leave a comment here, YouTube, instagram and/or Facebook. Each comment in any of these places equals an entry.
