24 Days of Tags - Gecko Galz (DT)


Use punch, diecut or a template to cut out a tag shape from heavy cardstock. Cut out design from the Gecko Galz Jewel-it sheet (Santa Claus) or use small scrap images. This technique is perfect for those small images you have in your stash. Attach design to tag. Frame the design by doodling with watercolor crayons around the edges. Embellish as you wish. These tags were embellished with mini pompoms, baker's twine and glitter. Punch holes at the top of your tags to attach ribbon or fibers to use as hangers.

If you want to write or stamp a message on the back of your tag...it works best to do this before adding embellishments.

I hope you will be inspired to make tags for all your gifts this year. The recipients will be delighted.

I would like to enter these tags in the following challenges:

Crafting by Design - Christmas
Suzy Bee's - #58 spots/dots
Lunagirl Moonbeams - old St. Nick
Not Just Cards - #8 anything goes
Simon Says Monday - transportation (Santa is on a bike)
Crafting for All Seasons - #92 Christmas (no cards)
Creative Knock-outs (8) - #67 tis the season
The Stamping Boutique - anything but a card
