Nigezza Creates: Tags & Tidings Tips: Not Just For Christmas!

Nigezza Creates aka Gez, Independent Stampin' Up® Demonstrator

Thank you for joining me today. Don't you love it when you find more than one use for a set, Stampin' Up! products are full of such versatile products and that makes them such good value. The Tags & Tidings set makes fabulous Christmas tags by using the die cut out as a template you can add other stamps and change it up.

I made a selection of cards and tags for many occasions using a selection of sentiments from various stamp sets. There are lots of different possibilities these are just the ones I used.

Tags & Tidings Tips: Not Just For Christmas! Nigezza Creates

Measurements

I made 3 standard C6 cards

Half a sheet of A4 card stock cut in half and scored in half

I made 4 note cards

1/4 sheet of A4 card stock scored in half

I made 2 3"x3" cards

6"x3" scored in half

I made 5 tags

4 - 2" x 3 1/2"

I used the tag topper punch - opps forgot that from the list!

The 5th tag was made of layering circles using different circle punches - something else I forgot to add to the list!

I then used a cut out from using the Tags and Tidings die as a template and stamped my different sentiments in the holes

Any sentiment Stamos that you have would work

I then cut these out using the die

I then used different decorative elements in stamp sets

I also sponged edges

I also cut the tags in different coloured card stock to layer up with the stamped tags

I also layered them with different label punches

Preparing the template

I cut a standard piece of card stock in half lengthways, I stamped the tacks and tidings stamp onto it and cut it out using the die.

This gave me a template

I folded the card stock in half

I then used washy tape to secure the template over the unstamped card stock

I then placed it on the Stamperatas

I laid the Photopolymer stamps in the places where they fit

I picked them up with one of the Stamperatas plates

I inked up the stamps and stamped them

Then I placed the clear mount stamps in place and repeated the process

I then cut these labels out using the die

Here is the template folded over the unstamped card stock

Here is the stamped laid in position.

Here I stamped the sentiments.

Then I repeated it with the clear mount stamps
