Such yummy ingredients to create this tag!

I die cut twice the "winter wishes" using two different

colours cardstock. After that I exchanged the letters and

used one of them for my tag.

On my tag I added some Stickles...

and his is how it looks without any glitter.

The Tattered Poinsettia was die cut from vellum.

For the center I used tiny parels.

One of the Decorative Trees was used here as greenery and not as a tree.

Thank you so much for visiting us today!

Have a creative day!

"Hello and Be Happy" Tags

Hey guys,

I hope you are doing well? :) Last week I met some friends and I wanted to make something for them. Of course it should be made from paper. ;) And next to cards I think that tags are a good idea to give away. 

At first I die cutted my tags and the sentiment in one step out of my cardstock. I love how simple it is to make things like these with the Magnetic Platform - it is a must-have! ;)

With one of my favorite stamp set (hey, it includes a lot of ampersands! That´s totally awesome. ;) ) I made some marks on the cardstock with versamark. No embossing powder. Just my stamps and the versamarkt ink pad to get this watermark style. 

Glue all things together and you are ready! ;)

Are you making tags? Do you just making them for gift wrapping, or to give away as home decor for the workspace wall? I´m curious, tell me. :)

Here is the list of supplies I used:

Sizzix Big Shot Plus Starter Kit #660515

Sizzix Accessory - Standard Magnetic Platform for Wafer-Thin Dies #656499

Sizzix Framelits Die Set 9PK - Tags #2 #658611

Then I simply distressed all edges with ink.

Splats were die cut from white cardstock and distressed with ink.

From the Decorative Heart Trim I used only two of the hearts.

The Letter "S" here stands for Surprise :-)

About mini horses and summer stories....

Hi there,

last year on a lazy sunny friday evening i met "Friedel".
Friedel is a cute mini horse - and together we went for a walk over sunburnt fields...

No fear! I did not rode him...

For a long time i thought about how to scrap about our little summer adventure....
Something colorful and funny.... but i couldn't decide which paper to choose.

And than i had an idea. Why not use all the papers?

Therefor the Tag & Bookplate Die (#656938) is perfect...
so i was able to use all kind of patterns and papers...

And the bookplates are so cute for a little journaling...

What do you think?

Hallo ihr,

letztes Jahr an einem faulen sonnigen Freitag Abend habe ich "Friedel" kennengelernt.
Friedel ist ein Mini-Pony - und zusammen sind wir über die sonnenverbrannten Felder spaziert...

Keine Sorge - ich bin nicht auf ihm geritten...

Lange habe ich darüber nachgedacht wie ich unser gemeinsames Abenteuer verscrappe.
Schön bunt und lustig... aber ich konnte mich nicht für ein Papier entscheiden.

Und dann hatte ich eine Idee... Warum nicht alle Papiere verwenden?

Hierfür ist das Tag & Bookplate Die (#656938) perfekt.
So konnte ich alle Farben und Muster benutzen...

Und die kleinen Bookplates aus dem Set sind so süß für kleinen Text....

Was denkt ihr?

Shabby Chic with Romy

Hi!

Welcome on the Sizzix blog on this Tuesday!

Today I would like to show you a shabby chic or vintage-themed tag that I made with some of my favourite Sizzix Alternations dies and a beautiful sentiment die from Sizzix.

The Tag & Bookplates die from Tim Holtz is certainly my absolute favourite die from Sizzix thus far. I have probably used it over 150 times already, but still cannot get enough of it. The basis of this tag was also made with this beautiful die.

I used the harlequin die from the Tim Holtz Mixed Media set to create the brown background on top of the pink tag.

I further embellished my cards with some hearts that were made with the Heartfelt die. I used two large hearts and a couple of tiny hearts and added pink pearls to make them look more elegant. Last but not least, I added the sentiment "Sunshine" on the bottom of my tag. This sentiment was made with the beautiful 'Happiness Phrase Set'.

Thank you so much for stopping by today!

Have a wonderful day!

 

In Dutch:

Hoi!

Welkom op het Sizzix blog op deze dinsdag!

Vandaag wil ik jullie graag een tag in shabby chic of vintage stijl laten zien, die ik heb gemaakt met een aantal van mijn favoriete Sizzix Alternations stansen en een mooie tekststans van Sizzix.

 

De Tag & Bookplates die van Tim Holtz is absoluut mijn favoriete stans van Sizzix tot nu toe. Ik denk dat ik hem al minstens 150 heb gebruikt, maar toch kan ik er nog geen genoeg van krijgen. De basis voor deze tag was dus ook gemaakt met deze mooie stans.

 

Ik heb de ruitjesstans van de Tim Holtz Mixed Media set gebruikt om de bruine achtergrond te maken bovenop het roze achtergrondlaagje.

 

Ik heb mijn tag verder versierd met hartjes die zijn uitgestanst met de Heartfelt die. Ik heb twee grote harten gebruikt en een aantal kleinere hartjes. Daar heb ik roze pareltjes aan toegevoegd om ze eleganter te maken. Uiteindelijk heb ik ook nog het word "Sunshine" verwerkt onderaan op mijn tag. Dit woord is uitgestanst met de mooie "Happiness Phrase Set".

 

Hartstikke bedankt voor je bezoekje vandaag!

Nog een fijne dag!

Bookmarks by Olga

Hello all!

Today I would like to share an unusual project with you. These are tag bookmarks. Now paper books are not much used though I think they can give much more pleasure during reading than electronic ones.
I also used printed quotes about books for decoration:

Sizzix Bigz Die - Love Gears
