Christmas Tag Swap 2017

These tags are for a tag swap on Swap-Bot.  We had to make 3 tags and they had to be no smaller than 2 x 4.

All these tags are inspired by the beautiful work of Jill Norwood a/k/a Greenwood Girl.

Each tag was cut with the Cricut Explore Air 2.

The first tag is a candy cane and it is 5 inches tall.    I cut the base 3 times with manila cardstock for stability.  The paper is all glitter paper.  I used a white gel pen to add stitching to the green holly leaves.  I didn't think it would work at first but it did.  I used little red pom poms for the berries.
Added a smaller tag that says "Candy Cane Kisses."  The Cricut Explore Air 2 cut the small tag and provided the writing on it.




The second tag is a coffee, hot chocolate, tea, etc. cup and it is also 5 inches tall.    I cut the base 3 times with manila cardstock for stability.  The paper scraps from my stash.  I  used a white gel pen to add stitching.  Added a smaller tag that says "Christmas Hugs."  The Cricut Explore Air 2 cut the small tag and provided the writing on it.



The last  tag is a star and is 5 x 5.   The paper is sturdy glitter paper.  I  added silver Stickles for more sparkle.  Added a smaller tag that says "Silent Night."  The Cricut Explore Air 2 cut the small tag and provided the writing on it.




Have a great day.

Make it a crafty one!
