2013 Christmas Tags: Tag #7 - Snowgirls; Tag #8: Gingerbread Sweeties; Tag #9: Reindeer

Hi everyone,
Here with a quick post of part of my weekend crafty endeavors.  I went to see my friend Kara following her surgery and wanted to bring her a little "feel better" gift so I made and gave her these tags to bring a smile:

Tag set #7 -  Snowgirls:

Kara texted me after opening my gift and said she liked them so much she is going to use them as ornaments on her Christmas tree.  Isn't that the sweetest!  I have to be honest I like these so much that I will definitely be making more very soon!   I LOVE snowgirls and boys!!!  And I love that I can print as much of this digital paper from Iralamija Shop on ETSY as I need!  :)  Yay!
 The little rose buttons are from Hobby Lobby but can also be made with a mold an some clay if you want.

 A view of the back:

Tag set #8:  Gingerbread Sweeties:

 I made 7 of these sweet gingerbread girl tags and will probably make more....thanks to Annette at Annette's Paper Bistro for the inspiration which led me to buy this die on Ebay and to make these tags!!!!  If you have never visited Annette's blog than grab a cup of coffee and spend some time paging through her beautiful creations!  I have long had her gingerbread men pinned to my "Tags Only" board on Pinterest. 
 The white on the gingerbread man is both chalk pencil and ink.  Most of these I did not put glitter on - can you believe it!?!  I glittered the one in the picture above but liked it better plain!!!!  LOL!


Tag #9:  Reindeer with scarf:
  I made 7 of these tags too!  The background paper on the reindeer is something I created on my computer using the names of Santa's reindeer.  I like this idea but need to learn how to use this new version of "Word" better to get the spacing right.  But this worked for now....
 That is it for me tonight.  Thanks for taking a look at my tags! The base of the tags are made with dies from Cheery Lynn Designs.com.
Hugs,
: ) Jill

Her blog is full of wonderful inspiration!

2013 Christmas Tags - Tag #1: A Holly Jolly Candy Cane

One of my favorite things to do when I have just a few minutes to craft is to make Christmas tags.  My goal this year is to make a set of tags for each of my siblings and parents to be delivered on Thanksgiving for them to use as they prepare for Christmas.  It is just a little gift that I can share with them from my heart.  This year I thought I would share some of the tags that I make on my blog.

Here is one of the 6 tags I managed to make last night while watching a movie:


This one is covered in glitter because I had a little glue accident while adhering the two parts of the candy cane together!  It is much prettier in person and I know a little girl in my family who will LOVE IT!!!!

Thanks for taking a look!  It is 9pm here in Seattle and I am off to put my boy to bed.
Goodnight!
:) Jill
