Hello! Today I've got a few cards to share with you using a BRAND new LIMITED edition holiday gift giving kit from Simon Says Stamp! While this kit is definitely geared towards gift packaging and tags (and I have a few tags to share below as well), I also couldn't resist making a set of cards witht he lovely pattern paper in the kit! Every beautifully packaged gift needs a card as well, don't you think?
These first cards are pretty much made up of lots of the pattern paper in the kit. The new Collaging Tile die is actually sized perfectly to fit some of the square elements in the pattern paper - so I used it to die cut out the center pieces on these cards, then trimmed other paper to mat behind or fit on my cardbases. I added some of the pretty red May Arts ribbon and Gold metallic string to embellish, and foam adhesive to pop the front panel up for dimension. Keep scrolling to see the tags I created - but here is a closer look at these cards:
Next up - more of that pattern paper, but this time mixed with a bit of the included stamp set! For these, I used the Collaging Tile die again, but a smaller one to cut out the main center pieces, then trimmed varying sizes of pattern paper to adhere behind it, trimming off anything that hung off the edge of the tag. I used the branch die from the Wrapped with Love stamp set with Pine ink, and stamped a bit of a border around the edges. For the left card, I kept the color more bold, and the right card I used more second generation stamping for a softer effect. I couldn't decide which style I liked better, so I did one of each! I added more of that red ribbon at the top, stapled in place, then embellished with Dazzling Clear gems. Finally, I applied some Glossy Accents in select areas, and sprinkled on the magical Rock Candy Chunky Glitter for lots of sparkle! I have one more set of tags below - but here is a better look at these tags and their sparkle:
These final tags are tiny and cute! I used the American Crafts Green Tags with sparkly twine, and stamped the floral image from the Wrapped with Love stamp set around the edges, and added some white splatter. I used a couple of the embossed and die cut Wrapped Up embossing folder pieces, cut from white cardstock, and with a bit of Apple ink blended over the top, and popped those up with foam, then added another sentiment from the stamp set. On the reverse (see the next photo), I stamped an additional sentiment and tiny bow image! Here are more photos of these finished tags:
