Challenge

Supplies Needed:

  • SNS Blue flower clip
  • SNS Black tiles
  • Cardstock
  • Ribbon
  • SNS Christmas eyelets
  • SNS Red Brads
  • SNS Gear Eyelets
  • SNS Chalk Its Christmas
  • Rub Ons
  • SNS Pop Dots

For the My Boy Tag: Double mat 2 cardstock to make the tag.  Place the boy punch out to the left and accent with the SNS Tiles on the right.  Rub-ons created the title on the bottom.  I mounted blue sheer ribbon and added the Blue Clip with wire, which can be found at SNS.

For the Christmas Tag: Double mount 2 tags again but using the pop dots to add dimension.  I added the red ribbon between the layers.  Use Chalk to color the Christmas Chalk-Its.  Add the eyelets to the sides for detail.  I used the green leaves and the red brads to create a poinsettia at the top.  Very easy to do!

Challenge

Supplies Needed:

  • Tags
  • Stickers of theme
  • Pop Dots
  • Ribbon
  • Rick Rac
  • Fiber
  • Buttons

Tag one: A day in the Park.  I took some stickers I had that were from Mrs. Grossman and put them on the tag, after cutting the stickers into various pieces.  Some of the pieces I used a pop dot to raise a couple trees and to add dimension.  A two tone brown ribbon was added to the tag.  Title: A day in the Park.

Tag two:  Baby tag :  Buttons were used to dress this tag up. They were all a mint green color.  One button said Baby Boy, one button said congratulations and one was a Teddy bear.  All were placed on the tag and a wispy fiber was added to the tag.

Tag three:  I love you!  This tag was a lot of fun to make.  First I put some line stickers down each side of the tag.  Then I used a gold pen to draw a rick rack look on it.  In the middle I glued a silk rose and then used the gold pen to write I Love You!
