Today I'm sharing a large gift tag showcasing the new Window Watching Dies with the Reindeer Games Stamps and and coordinating dies and Jingle Greetings. This oversized tag is perfect for tying onto a package or even adhering to a card base.
To create the tag, I die cut the large tag from the SSS Fog Cardstock using a Tags A Lot Creative Cuts Die. I stamped a greeting from the Jingle Greetings Stamp Set along the bottom of the tag with Versamark Ink and heat embossed the greeting with Ranger Liquid Platinum Embossing Powder.
I die cut the window from SSS Slate Cardstock using the Window Watching Creative Cuts Die. I cut three of these and adhered them one on top of another for a bit of dimension. I die cut the top portion of the window from SSS Black Cardstock and folded it along the score lines.
For the background, I trimmed a rectangle of white cardstock slightly smaller than the frame and stamped the skyline from the Reindeer Games Stamp Set along the bottom edge. I created a mask for the skyline and inked the "sky" with Chipped Sapphire Distress Ink. I added "snow" to the sky with the snow stamp from the Twinkle Towns Stamp Set and white pigment ink. I colored in the skyline with Copic Markers.
I stamped the reindeer from the Reindeer Games Stamps on smooth white cardstock using Memento Tuxedo Black Ink and colored in the image with Copic Markers. I die cut the image with the coordinating Reindeer Games Dies, then added detail to the eyes with the Sakura Black Glaze Pen and Glossy Accents for the nose. I adhered the reindeer to the background and adhered the window over the sky panel. I used the Wink of Stella Clear Glitter Pen over the skyline.
The hole reinforcement was die cut from SSS Lipstick Red Cardstock and adhered to the top of the tag. I threaded some twine through the top to finish the design.
