TAGplorations with STAMPlorations!!!!



Hello, and welcome to the first ever TAGplorations event hosted by the amazing Shery owner and designer of STAMPlorations, yay!!!!!!  The STAMPlorations DT and Guest Designers are hopping along sharing a plethora of tags to inspire, wow, and enable you hehehe with some of the amazing STAMPloration products.

I have created 3 very easy and quick tags that can be re-created in minutes, which is also perfect for any mass producing that may be needed.  I never have much time during the Holidays, but I LOVE being able to add simple handmade touches like tags to my presents and hopefully you will find these are easy to squeeze into your busy schedules as well...


Each tag uses a different technique too just to keep things interesting!  Here are some individual shots and a listing of techniques used...


This tag was created with the Holly Background Mini - ARTplorations stencil and Texture Luxe Paste onto a shiny red card stock.  I then die cut a second tag out of silver glitter card stock and adhered it at an angle behind it.  The sentiment was stamped from the  Oh, Christmas Tree Stamp Set trimmed and adhered at the top.  Trick: Wait until the paste is still slightly damp to add other layers or sequins, this alleviates the need for adhesive.  The top of the tag was finished with twine.

 This next tag required basic stamping, coloring and embossing before being tied off with ribbon and twine.  Both the flower and sentiment come from the Holiday Sketches: Christmas Flower Stamp Set.

And finally for my third card I played off the artsy feel of the Christmas tree.  I stamped the tree and sentiment first with a water resistant ink and then simply splattered several colors onto the background before adding some shine with stickles! :)  I added the twine this time with a small staple.  The tree image and sentiment both are from the  Oh, Christmas Tree Stamp Set .

Quick and artsy -- perfect combo, IMO! The last one is my favorite -- I just love its artsy feel, the splatters, and the colors!

An assortment of simply amazing tags! Love the 'tradition' of the first two, and the trendy artsy-ness of the last!

Love that you used different techniques for each tag, but I have to confess the poinsettia tag is my favourite of the three.

Amy A said...

Lisa, these are AMAZING! Love the different styles. But my favorite is the non-traditional colored Christmas tree tag! Love the vibrant contrast with the colors and black tree! *Swoon* :o)
