STAMPlorations TAGplorations Love Blog Hop!!!

Woo hoo!!!  It is time for a Blog Hop celebrating our love for Tags and STAMPlorations!  Make sure you are stopping by the STAMPlorations blog every day for inspiration, fun, and of course giveaways!!!  The last day to comment is February 14th, so make sure you keep hopping along tomorrow too!  Giveaway details at the end of the post, because now I'm going to share my tags...

I tell you I just can't get enough of the sentiments in the Funny Kinda Love Stamp Set!

To create this first tag I used the Luggage Tags Nesting Dies and Neenah Solar White Card stock.  I stamped the image and sentiments first before coloring them in with Prisma Color Pencils.  I then adhered some clear sequins, ribbon and twine to finish it.

This next tag is more simple in nature.  After diecutting the tag I used the Zen Hearts Stencil with Distress Ink in Peacock.  Since the stenciled image was too big to fit as a whole on the tag so I angled it and went over it with ink.  I then added some dimension with Red Nuvo Drops.  I liked the way the red popped against the blue so I decided to add a red ribbon too.

And I have a great discount code for you to use too!  Save 20% off your total purchase!  (Cannot combine this code with other codes, but you can use it on regular and sale price items!!!)
CODE: STAMPGIRLLISA

Easy DIY Treat Tags with DCWV

The DIY Project Stack®: Tags (available at your Michaels Store) is another one of those stacks that just makes life simpler, while still adding that personalized touch!  With Valentine's Day just around the corner I tend to create lots of goodie bags, and I thought these tags would make it easy to keep track of where each goodie bag is going. Check them out…

These tags went together quickly as all you have to do is punch them out and embellish! Plus the touch of gold foil is just drool worthy. Here is a peek at what my tags started out looking like…

And with a few embellishments they turned into these…

And finally into this...

Thanks so much for stopping by today and Happy Crafting!

3 Tags Made With Stencils

Hi!  Today I am sharing three simple and pretty floral tags that I have made using the new SweetStamps.com Stencils on the SweetStamps.com Blog...

Supplies Used:
Art Stencil SPRING FLORALS 6x6 as66000
 Distress INK PAD MINIS
Shades™ Ink Spots EARTHY
 Shades™ Ink Spots PRIMARIES
 Wink of Stella Brush Marker CLEAR
 Framed Handwritten Words Clear Stamp Set SS4406

Aren't they so pretty?!  And super easy to make too! Double Score!  As soon as I saw the Floral Stencil at SweetStamps.com I couldn't wait to get inky with it!  For these tags all I did was go over the flowers one at a time with Distress inks and a sponge.  I then went over them with some Copics for more shading and then I colored with my Spica Pen to add some sparkle!  Next I stamped the sentiments and finally paced them through my die cutter to create tags!

I am adding these to the following challenges:
Party Time Tuesdays: Anything Goes
Simon Says Stamp Challenge: April Showers/Spring Flowers

And these would also work in the SweetStamps.com Challenge: Flowers that is going on through Sunday!  All supplies are welcome!

Happy Crafting!

You're Awesome Tag Style

So I debated back and forth on whether or not I should share this card... it is extremely CAS, and I wasn't really sure at first if it was "good enough".  But then I thought what the heck, it's handcrafted with love, of course it is good enough!  And so what if it is super plain, it's still a happy little card, so I present to you this...

Supplies Used:
Stamps and Dies: Avery Elle
Ink: MFT 
Hemp Cord: Hemptique

I have created this card based on two challenges:
I heart Avery Elle: Die Challenge
CAS-ology: Rainbow
Simon Says Stamp: Anything Goes

Thanks for stopping by and thanks for visiting me and my little CAS card!
Happy Crafting!
