Mama Elephant Designer Series | "Stack of Gifts" Tags A Lot Creative Cuts (video)

It's hard to believe that Christmas is only three months away and the holiday season will be upon us before we know it!

One of my favorite ways of dressing up small gifts is by creating my own die cut boxes from Christmas-themed patterned papers on the Silhoeutte Cameo. And every gift box needs a beautiful tag to adorn it! The Tags A Lot Creative Cuts die collection makes the perfect gift tags!

Today I have a set of five gift boxes all embellished with wonderful little tags die cut using the awesome new Tags A Lot Creative Cuts dies. I used the two smallest tags from the collection for these elegant silver and green packages.

To create the tags, I die cut five tags from smooth white cardstock and one of each size from vellum using the Tags A Lot Creative Cuts dies. The hole reinforcements were all cut from silver foil specialty paper.

I stamped greetings and images on each of the tags using an assortment of images and greetings from the Confetti, Winter Wonderland, Merry Greetings, and No Peeking stamp sets. I used Simon Says Stamp SSS Fog Gray and Slate Gray inks and Versamark embossed with silver embossing powder to keep with the color scheme of the gift set.
