TAG DAY..

 Hello everyone,

I have been busy in my craft room getting tags sorted for my sons shop, and for customers and for myself, it is a long road but having as great time..


Decided on navy cardstock and die cut my base tag shape..


The supervisor was busy in the sun..


Next layer, tartan papers, cut with same die then hand trimmed!!
as the next size down was too small and it looked weird.


Oh, no, supervisor back and pointed out I was cutting crooked!!


The smallest of my tag dies stamped on and white embossed..


postage stamps cut out of papers and cut with postage die..
and backed with music papers..


three layers put together with a gold brad...and done !


and then there was five..
all splattered with white ink and edged in brown ink..


then I made a box to sit them in for the shop and the box was a plastic bag sandwich lunch  storage box and I covered it and added this lovely die cut sentiment..

Well, I had so much fun, I kept going...


This is where I hide my branches and berries,
 as you never know when that fluffy molting supervisor will leap in..


These papers are busy and they were matted onto kraft colour tag this time..


Tartan on the bog ones..


stamped the sentiment with the LOTV Christmas sentiments,
 gosh, I've had them for many years..


and done!..set two.

Thank you so much for stopping by..

I'll see you soon..

Luv CHRISSYxx

Hi Chrissy, gorgeous sets of tags, they will fly off the shelves and you will need to make more soon, better get Holly on the job :))
Thanks for your thoughts on the 'splashes' problem, I decided not to bother on this occasion, cheers my friend. xx

They are wonderful Chrissy, but so much work! It must have took ages trimming those tags by hand and all the die cutting x

Gosh, these lovely triple decker tags are fabulous Chrissy, bet they will prove very popular in the shop, love the box you made to display them in too- you'll probably be kept busy re-filling it.

Your son must be thrilled to bits to see what is coming from you, I suspect his customers do too. These are wonderful tags, great designs as always. x

I have to say that Heidi's face cracked me up! She must be a bit picky about things!LOL Your tags are adorable and I especially love the postage die cut frames with them! The box you've made to hold them in is such a brilliant idea too!

Both set of tags is so pretty, I do love how you layered them and the splattering, like the tabs at the top for the second batch of them too!

I would never have thought Holly would be such a taskmaster. But, she certainly got some excellent work out of you. Your tags and box are beautiful and sure to be a huge hit.

As always,Chrissy, just gorgeous and I love how you upcycled the box to hold them. Your furry supervisor cracks me up.

Oh they are so full of traditional Christmas vibes Chrissy. Love the tartan. I know what you mean about the next size down in tags. Some of them always seem to be missing a step. You were very patient to cut them by hand especially with the supervisor lol checking on you!! Thanks for playing along with us at Tag Tuesday.
