Christmas tags & tag gift box


I realize these are very unconventional Christmas colors. But bear with me, it's a pretty cool little Cricut project. I was inspired to make this tag gift set from this Pinterest pin. I was even inspired to use great paper with unusual colors from that pin.




Here is a view of the back.




And a view of the side and how the tags fit inside. There are 10 tags and the only embellishment is the ribbon and twine through the hole at the top of the tag. I let the paper be the focal point. 


Here are the fronts and backs of the 10 tags. I stamped the backs using CTMH stamps from two retired sets No Peeking and Winter Reflections with a new SU! Black ink pad. I have to say I am completely in love with the new ink pad and the ink formulation. It stamped perfectly all 10 tags, no light spots or missed portions. Just super crisp, fine lines and perfection. Now it did stain the heck out of my clear acrylic CTMH stamps. But I think it is a trade off I am willing to make for stamp perfection. 

I created this .cut file using Cricut George Basic Shapes cartridge in Design studio, and I am happy to share this file with you if you would like to make a gift set like this. Please leave your email address in the comments section below this post and I will email the .cut file to you.
 

Find inspiration everywhere! Go... Create something fun & fabulous. Enjoy!
