Christmas Tags - Lauren Tomecek

Christmas is the perfect time for sharing handmade gifts with your family and friends. I love being able to whip up some quick tags to go with our presents and the best thing if they can be either really simple or quite arty.

 

 

I started with a very simple Santa Suit tag for my Secret Santa present at work. The buckle and words have a coat of gold embossing powder heat set over them for some bling. Scrapmatts: CB3007 Tags 03; CB1231 Buckles & Belts 01; CB6098 Words 27.

 

I also used the ATC bases to create some arty gift tags with a mix of lace, texture paste, microbeads and mists. Scrapmatts used: ATC10-010 Bracket 01; CB1094 Reindeer 02; CB6083 Bows 01; CB1104 Holly 01.

 

 

December Scrappings!

Hello Scrapmatts fans!

Renee here with some recent scrappings I have created using Scrapmatts goodies!

First up I created a quick and easy Christmas card:

I have used CB1225 Pine Sprig 01 and covered it with sparkliness! I then have used CB6098 Words 27 Merry Christmas to add the Christmas sediment :) 

Next here a few layouts I have made using CB4063 Leaf Spray 13 to show you how versatile it can be:

Anne

You may recognize the Lovely Anne Patterson as the subject for this layout! I have used a couple of pieces from CB4063 Leaf Spray 13, gessoed them and then simply higlighted with inka gold.

Tranquility

Again I have used CB4063 Leaf Spray 13 but I have gone to town with the extra thick embossing powder. I have also done the same treatment on the tranquility title from CB6087 Assorted Words 15 

Lastly I will finish up with this one:

Shark boy on 2 wheels

On this one I have used  CB6095 Assorted Words 18, CB1072 Gears 01,                   CB1075 Gears 03.

Making can be fun for everyone

Anne here to share with you a little making fun.

This year, for teacher's gifts, I had my boys help me make them.

The fantastic hanging star kit was the basis for my teachers gifts.  

I got the boys to ink and glue the stars and then write a note to their teachers. 

Here are some pics of you youngest making his star.

"so what colour is this?"

Then I put these together in a frame and created a little thank you.

The star is attached to rope, which is stapled in the top of the frame, so it actually moves in the Shadow box.  

Then I have created the following design for the Black with 2 challenge this month.  

I have incorporated some Ball-balls and The words Christmas Blessings.  

Thanks for looking and I hope you get to do some Making soon.
