Saturday Series: Christmas in July

I know I have been absent from blogging, life has just been a busy one!!  On Saturday's I like to share several ideas using the same stamp set or paper. Today, I wanted to share my Christmas in July class that we did this last week. Very Fun ideas!! If you are someone who needs to get ready for Christmas early, then you will LOVE these ideas. I used the Lots of Joy stamp set and the Merry Moments Designer Series Paper to make all these great ideas!!  I hope you enjoy!!



Is that a fun combination??



I just LOVED the tag box, it was a favorite in class. I used the clear mount stamp cases to hold the tags, we made 16 tags in total, 4 of each design. For the liner in the box, I used the Larger than Life alphabet, for the TAGS title. And continued with the Christmas Tree theme and I think it really turned out nice!! What a fun way to keep your tags accessible and contained!!






Here's what the tag box looked like inside:



This little tag box is perfect, because you can make it now and close up the box and the tags stay nice until December. The dividers we made  keep it all nice and neat!



When I was coming up with the tag design, I wanted to keep them simple but cute!! So for this tag, I used the Tree negative to make the other tag. I love it when I save myself time and work smarter!! I used the Scallop Tag Topper Punch, Tree punch and the Itty Bitty Accents Punch pack. The Merry Moments Designer Series Paper is so pretty on both sides that you can easily create different looks. I also used several different framelits to accomadate different sized presents they would embellish.  For the Old Olive tag, I used the Deco Label Framelits.







For this tag I simply cut a square and layered it. I actually stamped the ornament in the corner of the square (to get the ornament topper) and then stamped the ornament on a piece of scrap paper. The ornament coordinates perfectly with the 1 1/2 inch circle punch....don't ya love that!! It makes life so easy!! :) I then popped it up with dimensionals.  And yes, I had to use the new Cherry Cobbler thick Baker's twine to finish it off!! Super cute!!





This was one of my favorite tags, it's just simple and pretty!! That's a winning combination to me!! Do you recognize this shape?? It's becoming one of my new favorites,  its the Lots of Label Framelits!! LOVE IT! If you don't have this shape, just use one you do have.  For this tag I used the Festival of Trees tree stamp and then used the Merry Christmas stamp from Lots of Joy! i really like the font in this stamp...fun!!








Here's a few pictures from class, we had Christmas music playing, Marsha made gingerbread cookies. Of course, we had chips, salsa and guacamole (it's Texas ya know) and watermelon and green grapes to stay with the Christmas theme!! How fun is that!!





Tag making can make you hungry.....   :))






Busy little elf's !! Santa would be proud!










Tags, tags and more tags!! I will be sharing the Wine Topper details and gift card holder this week!! Thanks for stopping by!!
