Also, I wanted to remind you that these are the last days to sign up for Wanderlust at a significant discount:
And now, here is an oldie but goodie, from 2013 - enjoy!
If you're like me, the holidays sneak up on you ad leave you scrambling for last minute gifts. Here's a quick and easy tutorial on making some fun tags. They can either hang from a gift, or accompany a gift card or cash!
Supplies:
Manila tags
some thin cardboard
some favorite stencils
scissors
paint
glue
a dauber or cosmetic sponge
glitter glue
string or ribbon
1. Choose one of your stencils that has lots of open space for dabbing color. Stencil your tags. I used my Flowers Negative and Flowers Positive stencils, and Carolyn Dube's Use Your Words stencil from Stencil Girl Products.
2. Choose one of your stencils that has an intricate pattern. I used my Medallions Stencil from Stencil Girl Products. Stencil your cardboard with white paint or gesso. (I also used Viva Decor Silver modeling paste, but you don't have to.)
3. I made the stars by cleaning off my more intricate stencil on black paper and then punching out the stars. Use your imagination for this step!
4. Cut up your cardboard into circles, squares, strips, and glue them onto your tags.
5. Add your stars and doodle with glitter glue.
6. Use some string, twine or ribbon to hang them.
Of course, there's a video.
And you can watch Holiday Tags on You Tube here.
In case you missed it, here's the You Tube link to my tutorial on making some ornaments using corrugated cardboard and my Three Trees stencil from Stencil Girl. I made a garland with them, but later separated them into individual ornaments.
