Hi everyone! How are you my creative and crafty friends?! It's my turn up on
The Greetery Blog today to share a project with you! And of course I'm sharing my project with you here too! Yay! I am always so excited and happy to share with you. Hope you're doing great! Happy Friday! Good wishes for a great weekend! Hope you get in some crafting time! I just started two new cross stitch projects! LOL. Seems I am the queen of starting projects, but not the queen of finishing projects!
I am smitten with the new honeycomb items from
The Greetery, so today I decided to make some more projects using them! Just so cheerful and happy!!
I created two festive and fun gift tags using lots of my favorite Greetery supplies! I have a few special birthdays coming up and I always love to make something handmade.... I created two gift tags - one is a gift box decoration and the other one I haven't decided yet - maybe a tie on to a bottle of champagne, or as a gift bag tie on! I used pretty shades of pink and mint with gold accents for my party today!
This just makes me happy!!
I started by die cutting two of the big tags using the Tag Team Duo dies - they are the perfect size tag! I used the Tag Team Duo matching stencils to stencil pink polka dots on one tag and mint green stripes on the other tag. For stenciling I used Distress Inks and blender brushes. The perfect party backgrounds!
Next I die cut all the pieces to make a Hey Honeycomb Balloon and a Hey Honeycomb Ice Cream Cone. I used cardstock shades to match those cute Party Honeycomb Balls. I added bits of ink shading and also Stickles Diamond glitter glue. I affixed the honeycomb balls to the die cut pieces using liquid glue.
For the accents I splattered on some white paint and created gold streamers for both tags. I added a pretty ribbon from my stash and little scattered gems and pearls. For the sentiments I used the Tear Strip Banners Dies along with the Tear Strip Banners Birthday stamps. These were perfect across the bottom of my tags.
For the gift, I wrapped it in Kraft wrapping paper first. I added a star border using the Star Strip Die and made it from matching cardstock to the balloon. Just a little extra touch. This is such a fun way to embellish a gift! These tags would also be nice for a graduation party gift, or any other celebration!
That's it for my project for today! I hope you have a fantastic and creative day! I look forward to sharing with you again soon. In the meantime, happy crafting! XOXO
These are so cute, Wanda!!
