Hello! I've made a set of Christmas tags using the journaling cards that came in the package.
If you look at the back, there is enough space to write some message for the recipient.
I was inspired by Elena Morgun's Tags Tutorial. I love the layering and the use of gel mediums! The ones that she made in the tutorial were nautical.
Mine are supposed to be for Christmas so I used some scraps from my other projects and some embellishments from my stash to make the tags Christmas-y. Here is what I came up with.
I cut tags out of the journaling cards and punched the holes where the twines would go in. To make one tag, I adhered two of the cut journaling cards. The front part has the pattern while the back part has the lines for writing the message.
Just like what Elena did, I layered several bits of scrap paper, die cuts, stickers, charms and what-not. I just went crazy with it. I brushed the surface with glass bead gel medium and I also added gold micro pearls on some areas to make them interesting.
This is what the back of the tags look like.
I enjoyed making these tags. I may make some more in the future. I hope you like them. Thank you for looking! Have a wonderful day.
