Tin of Tags

Hi Crafters!

How close is Christmas now!! We put our Christmas Tree up on the weekend & I've been collecting baubles & returning them to the tree ever since haha! *Insert 20 month old toddler here* We've decided to leave the presents in the cupboard until Christmas Eve after Luke's gone to bed, so at least they'll survive :P

In the spirit of Christmas, I've got another bunch of Tags for you today. I used similar designs as my last batch, but this time I've kept them all the same shape & on Whisper White cardstock, as I didn't have as much time to get them all done.

Here's the first five designs. 


Here's the second five designs. 


Here's the little bag I've used to pack them in. It's a Kraft bag that I've run through the Big Shot with the Softly Falling Embossing Folder. I've added a Delicate White Doily & a strip of the Fancy Foil Acetate Sheet with some white metallic thread & a gold paperclip from my stash.

Crazy Crafters Blog Hop with Cindy Schuster


Hi Crafters!

Some exciting news for you today! It's Blog Hop time!! Today we are CASE-ing (Copy & Selectively Edit) the wonderfully talented Cindy Schuster, who is also joining us on this hop!

I hope you find great inspiration from all the projects in this hop. You may be starting the hop here at my blog (Jessie Holton) or you may have come from the previous person on the list. Be sure to click on the next person in the list to continue your blog hop adventure casing Cindy's work.

Here's Cindy's card which I have chosen to case:


And here is my case of Cindy's card:


I love the copper panel on Cindy's card, so I've made my own using the Happy Heart Embossing Folder on Pink Pirouette cardstock (also used for middle layer & base) & then gently wiped Versamark over the top before using the Heat Tool with Copper Embossing Powder. I put that on Dimensionals & also added a layer of the Falling in Love Designer Series Paper from the new Occasions catalog (sign up for your Free Copy here).

The little Love sentiment is from the Lift Me Up stamp set & die cut with the matching framelits. This Bundle is also from the new Occasions catalog. I've propped up the little heart with a Dimensional underneath.


I have added a big double bow with the Sweet Sugarplum Glitter Ribbon, Very Vanilla Ribbon (from the new Occasions Catalog) & some Copper Metallic Thread. I've adhered it to the card with a strip of Tear & Tape.


I have matched the inside with the heart & another sentiment from the Lift Me Up stamp set in Copper Embossing, on a layer of Whisper White cardstock.

I hope you have enjoyed my card! Please hop around the rest of the Crazy Crafters & check out our cases of Cindy's wonderful work!




I've also added this card to the Crazy Crafters Team Highlights for this week. You can see all the entries & vote for your favourites from 7.30pm, Friday 2 December xx
