I am so sad that my 12 Days of Christmas Tags Series is ending today. I had so much fun creating and sharing these with you, & hope you enjoyed them too. Please let me know if I inspired you to go grab your pile of scraps and create some special gift tags for the special people in your life this holiday season.
This final tag is a great all year long idea. I used the Serene Silhouettes stamp set and hope this sparks some ideas for you.
Need more holiday ideas?
Stay tuned~ I will be sharing more ideas, here and on my facebook page, with you this week.
Just in the nick of time !
Order your Stampin Up! Gift Certificates from me today and I will design special packaging for it just for you!!
DO you know someone who collects nutcrackers? Today’s gift tag is that perfect touch for their Christmas gift! It is quick and easy to create and you can customize it with their favorite colors or colors to match the gift wrapping. Using our Stampin’ Blendabilities made coloring these tags a snap with no streaking.
Til we meet again,
Blendabilities make an awesome holiday gift for that paper crafter on your Christmas list. Order them through my online store, today to order them in time for holiday giving.
Today’s tag uses our Christmas Bauble individual stamp set. After putting it all together I decided I wanted a little more texture and detail. Watch my video to see what I added to this elegant gift tag.
Tag #8 is for all those packages from Santa. When growing up we always knew which gifts were from Santa because they were always wrapped in Santa paper and had Santa tags. We carried on this tradition with our children and now our grandchildren. These are sure to be a hit!
Project Life by Stampin’ up! makes the perfect gift for the busy person who loves to document everyday life moments. I can’t begin to tell you how many have thanked me for showing them this quick and easy way to keep pictures and other memorabilia organized and in a book.
This elegant wreath gift tag was created with the Wonderous Wreath stamp set & framelits. This is another quick & simple gift tag that will add an elegant touch to any holiday gift. Visit judistamps.com if you don’t see this video.
Today’s Christmas tag was created with a baby’s first Christmas in mind. It will make a great embellishment for a memory page or you can crop a picture to fit into the frame opening.
The tag for today was very popular on my Facebook Page. This tag may look like it took a while to create but by using the Homemade Holiday Framelits it was a snap. In fact I made another 7 of these in less than 20 minutes! I am going to have some mighty happy friends and neighbors this holiday!!

Our Monster Maniac stamp set is perfect for a Valentine page or two! I am in love with this set and have been using it for so many projects lately. It was the first one I went to in creating these scrapbook pages for my grand baby, Samantha. This will be her first Valentine’s Day.
The pages are only 8×8 because my daughter-in-law says she doesn’t do “picture books”. In fact, this book is going to be a book given to Samantha on her first birthday. It is filled with pages of “firsts”. I am trying to sneak pictures so her mom doesn’t know I am doing the book. I will add more elements ( punched hearts in Real Red, WHisper WHite & Coastal Cabana) and journal blocks after I put the pictures on the page.
I used Real Red, Coastal Cabana & Basic Black cardstock and paper from the Fresh Prints Designer Paper Pack (#132996).
Here is a close up of the little monster.
I used my Blender Pen to watercolor her ( or is it him?)
This is the second page. I will have my son & daughter-in-law, each, write a special message to Samantha and tuck them in a mini envelope so she can read them when she is old enough. I know she will treasure these notes forever. I will make the envelopes with my Envelope Punch Board ( #133774) once I get their “love” notes so they are just the right size.
When coloring this monster, I went over his hands and horn tips a few times so they would be a little darker. By layering the color I had more control of the final outcome.
I used my Stampin’ Write Marker fine tip to color in the stripes on the legs and neck. It is hard to tell in this picture but the neck is done in Real Red and Coastal Cabana and the legs are Real Red & white.
I have intended for these pages to be for Valentine’s Day but they could really be for any special event. I could see using it for one of those “cuddle” times or “What I love about you,” layout.
Do you find this stamp set irresistible? To order the Monstermaniacs 5-piece stamp set( #134972) for $14.95 go to my ONLINE STORE before it is no longer available. This stamp set is only available in clear-mount only.

I didn’t want to keep you waiting today so I am bringing you my Trendy Valentine Goody Bag early this morning. I can’t believe what a little sunshine will do for your creative juices, I spent the entire afternoon yesterday creating fun,quick projects to bring to you. My husband commented that I was like a little kid in a candy store showing him all my creations last night. Even the best of us have that creativity bug bite us and suck all the creativity out!
(I’ll let you in on a little secret.) I’ve been going through boxes since our move but we moved into a house not even 1/4 the size of our last home. I was constantly moving things to get to something then had to move it all back again. With no where for things to go we even had to stack things in front of the windows in the office/closet. While I was away in Houston my husband put up shelves & moved furniture. I came home to sunlight IN my house & I could walk without moving boxes or furniture!! Happy,happy, joy,joy. He’s a real keeper.
Don’t you just love it?
My picture just doesn’t do it justice. It just too dang cute and blingy in real life.
My scrap bin is getting full so I decided it was time for a challenge.I found a scrap of our Tea Lace Doily, some pieces of Red & Silver Glimmer papers & even Whisper White cardstock. I used them all!
Don’t you just love the detail that the Scallop Trim Border punch gives it? If you don’t have one yet now is a great time to get it because it is just one of the products in our Weekly Deals from 1/21/14 – 1/27/14. Check it out here.
I promised you I would share a video on how to create this fun,trendy Valentine goody bag. So without further ado. . . . . . . ( I’ve always wanted to say that!)
