Hello and welcome!

Today I’m happy to take part at the 25 Days of Christmas Tags event hosted by the talented Tracy McNeely. We are on day 4 of this awesome feature so make sure you visit her blog each day to see all 25 days! And today it is also Newton’s Nook Designs feature day and that means you’ll see a lot of inspiration and tags made using the NND brand products!

I noticed that I made so many colored projects lately and that’s why I decided to change and switch to another favorite technique. In fact, today I came out with two holiday tags completely die cut from a few lovely NND sets. To start, I prepared the tag bases, die cutting the shapes from Simon Says Stamp Lipstick Red Cardstock using NND Fancy Edges Tag Die Set along with two patterned tag tops. In case you’re interested, I’m using Big Short Die Cutting Machine for many years and very satisfied with it!!!

Then I switched to the Christmas Wreaths. The holy leaves and pine branches come from NND Pines and Holy Die Set. I used two different shades of green to built the wreaths alternating Simon Says Stamp Green Apple and Bazzill Gumdrop cardstock.

The die cut sentiments are from Snow Globe Shaker Die (“Joy”) and Main Street Christmas Die (“Noel”) Sets. Both were die cut from a plan white cardstock first and then embellished with a sparkling layer from DCWV Glitter Metallic Cardstock pad. Assembling the wreath together I used Multi Medium Matte liquid adhesive since it dries clear and matte. As a final touch I added a few tiny gold droplets of Heidi Swapp Color Shin Gold spray that tied the golden sentiments together with the rest of the tags.

That’s all for today! Hope these holiday tags will inspire you!!! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fantastic day!

Hugs,
Tatiana

Hello and welcome!

Today I’m taking part at the 25 Days of Christmas Tags event hosted by the talented Tracy McNeely. We are on day 3 of this awesome feature so make sure you visit her blog each day to see all 25 days! And today it is also Newton’s Nook Designs feature day and that means you’ll see a lot of inspiration and tags made using the NND brand products!

My today’s project is definitely not for mass producing, but I LOOOVE coloring so much and, trust me, I spent some happy hours playing with the adorable critters from All Aboard For Christmas stamp set. To start, I die cut all the elements using the coordinating All Aboard For Christmas Die Set on Neenah Solar White paper and then stamped the open images with MFT Black Hybrid ink. The tag shape along with a sparkling metallic die cut sentiment were made using Snow Globe Shaker Die Set. Finally all the backgrounds were embellished with a few matching silver snowflakes heat embossed from Sweater Weather stamp set.

The first cutie is a fabulous reindeer put onto a traditional blue background. I tried to use a limited color combo here and colored the image with different shapes of pink.

As always I’m leaving you all the exact colors used on every tag: COPIC MARKERS RV02-RV04-RV09; R20-R22-R24-R30-R32; E53-E55-E99; Y00-Y21-YR23; C00-C1-C2-C3-C5-C7.

The sweet little fox turned out on a yellow background. These are all the COPIC MARKERS used on the tag: YG00-YG05-YG09; R000-R20-R32; Y13-Y17-YR04-YR07; BG11-BG23; B21-B24;

The cute doggie was colored with some complementary colors: COPIC MARKERS YR23-YR24-E99; V04-V05-V06; BG11-BG23; YG01-YG05; Y13-Y17-YR04; R20.

Finally we have the purr-fect little kitty that turned out more colorful and bright. COPIC MARKERS used on this tag are Y11-Y13-Y15-Y17-Y26; YR15-YR24-YR27-YR31-YR68; BG000-BG01-BG02; G0000-YG00-G02; R000-R02-R20; RV04; E99; R05-R29.

Hello and welcome!

Today I’m taking part at the 25 Days of Christmas Tags event hosted by the talented Tracy McNeely. We are on day 5 of this awesome feature so make sure you visit her blog each day to see all 25 days! And today it is also Newton’s Nook Designs feature day and that means you’ll see a lot of inspiration and tags made using the NND brand products!

Christmas is approaching so fast and so I decided to move ahead and prepare holiday gift’s tags for my family! Since it’s a mass producing project, I kept everything quite simple and easy! And my color choice was determined by my Christmas tree colors: teal and sparkling white, but you can obviously adopt this idea to suit your color theme.

This year I went for a shaped tags die cut from Ornamental Shaker Die. This set meant to be used for creating shaker tags, but I used only the base shape die and went for a one layer project. I used a teal cardstock (Audrey Blue color from Simon Says Stamp) and the matching teal ink to add a fun tone on tone pattern through Snowfall stencil.

I let the ink air dry well and then heat embossed on top of my tags with a white embossing powder various sentiments from Ornamental Wishes stamp set. For an extra finish touch I die cut the ornamental tops using the same Ornamental Shaker Die set from a plain white cardstock, covered them with a generous coat of Multi Medium Matte adhesive and sprinkled a sparkling glitter on top. Once dried, I shook off the excess and adhered the top parts on both sides of the tags to make them look perfect since I’ll use the back part for writhing names.

That’s all for today! Hope this project will inspire you!!! Thanks so much for stopping by and have a fantastic day!

Happy Thursday!

Today I’m taking part at the 25 Days of Christmas Tags event hosted by the talented Tracy McNeely. We are on day 2 of this awesome feature so make sure you visit her blog each day to see all 25 days! And today it is also Newton’s Nook Designs feature day and that means you’ll see a lot of inspiration and tags made using the NND brand products!

For my projects, I used NND Tags Times Two die set and first of all die cut a whole bunch of rectangle tags from a while cardstock. Holiday period is usually a very busy one so I thought to come up with something really quick and suitable for mass producing, but at the same time fun and very cute, giving that perfect finishing touch to the holiday presents!

If you are a stamper, my first idea is right for you!!! LOL!!! I grabbed new Stylish Stocking stamp set that has awesome bold shapes ready to cover the whole pattern. I used a stamping positioning tool and the negative part of the tag die for quick and easy aligning. Adding the top part to the stockings, I purposely covered the stamp non perfectly since the splotchy look added a fun texture in this case.

If you are a fan of cute images and coloring, my second projects is for you! I flipped through tons of fantastic holiday stamp sets designed by Newton’s Nook and chose a few fun images to play with! (In case you are wondering I used here Naughty Or Mice, Frozen Friends, Sweater Weather and my ever favorite kitty, of course, from Newton’s Holiday Mischief stamp sets.) Once more I used the negative part of the tag die in my stamping positioning tool for a quick and easy stamping with a waterproof black ink. Since I didn’t want to spend a whole bunch of time coloring perfectly all the stamps, I went for a spot coloring technique with Zig markers and added traditional red and green Christmas colors only to some details.
