Gift Box Tags

 

I made a few more tags for Christmas gifts.  The floral one will get attached to the Ornament Rose Box that I made for my Mom.  You may view the box here: http://mydianedesigns.blogspot.com/2012/11/primrose-gift-box.html

The Reindeer Tag will be attached to their calendar I made for them.  You may view the calendar here: http://mydianedesigns.blogspot.com/2012/09/2013-calendar.html

I created these tags in My Digital Studio software, printed them out on Whisper White cardstock, glued them together and punched a hole through the top.  I added White grosgrain ribbon to the floral one, and Real Red Taffeta Ribbon for the Reindeer.

Mom and Dad - DGSC71

Working on a few past challenges on splitcoaststampers (DGSC71).  This one challenged us to use only one photo, a large stamp background and smaller stamps as embellishments. 

You may view the challenge and all the projects created with it here:

As I usually scrapbook more than one photo on a page....this was a tough challenge for me. I really like the end result though. I used a recent photo of my parents as they celebrated my Dad's 70th Birthday. The subway art is all stamps. I used My Digital Studio software.

Thanks for looking!
