To & From Tags

Yesterday I was up on Graphic 45's blog sharing with you my To & From Tags which feature the Winter Wonderland collection along with the ATC To & From tags from the Staples Collection. I have a few photos on my blog for you, but if you haven't stopped by Graphic 45's blog yet, make sure you do so that you can check out the rest of the photos of my project as well as Magda's fabulous project.


I used the To & From Ivory Artist Trading Tags from the Staples Collection and embellished the tags using border pieces, patterned paper and fussy cut images.


Tip: Add borders and smaller fussy cut images to embellish the die cut word tags.



Thanks for stopping by and make sure to head over to Graphic 45's blog  to check out the rest of the photos of my project and Magda's fabulous project!

Follow Your Dreams & Dream Big ATC's

 Today, I get to share with you these two cute ATC's which feature a variety of dies from Els van de Burgt Studio and Joset Designs along with ModaScrap patterned paper. Grab a cup of your favourite summery beverage and enjoy as I walk you through some of the elements on my ATC's.  


My first ATC is the Follow you dreams which features the My Little Boy patterned paper from Modascrap as well as a few dies from Els van de Burgt Studio and Joset Designs.


To add some extra detail in the bottom left, top left and top right corners, die cut six stars from the Hot Air Balloon die out of Yellow Soft Finish Cardstock. On the Beaded Oval Frame, add some Turquoise/Silver Glitter Dots to the beads on the frame. For the sentiment, stamp the sentiment first and then cut it apart. Make sure to ink your edges of each element.


Add the pennant banner from the Celebration Flags die underneath the Hot Air Balloon and overtop of the Dotted Scallop Ovals. By keeping the Hot Air Balloon simpler, it pops off the ATC.  


My second ATC is the Dream Big which features a lot of the same elements in the previous ATC, but I switched up the glitter dots and added hearts instead of stars. 


To add some extra detail in the bottom left corner, die cut two hearts from the Hot Air Balloon die out of Pink Soft Finish Cardstock. On the Beaded Oval Frame, add some Transparent/Gold Glitter Dots to the beads on the frame. For the sentiment, stamp the sentiment first and then cut it apart. Make sure to ink your edges of each element.


Add the banner flags from the Celebration Flags die underneath the Hot Air Balloon. To decorate the hot air balloon, add three stars and a decorative edge.

Other Products Used:

- Tim Holtz for Ranger Ink: Vintage Photo Distress Ink
- Ranger Ink: Jet Black Archival Ink

Thanks for stopping by and checking out my two ATC's. I hope that I've inspired you to recreate them at home.
