Outside The Box: Gift Tags

Hello there! Michelle here, sharing a few Christmas gift tags I created using the new Vintage Sled Die. Grab an assorted mix of colored cardstock and let's get busy! I die cut the sled 9 times using red, pink, green, aqua, teal, light gray, dark gray, kraft, and black cardstock.

I assembled the slatted pieces with foam tape. I used a small fussy scissor to trim long thin strips of foam tape. I applied them to the base of the die cut sled, than lay the slatted pieces on top. You can also use liquid glue if you do not want a raised look.

After the sleds are assembled, set aside. Let's die cut all the trimmings!

I used the tree tops from the new Collage Dies, Pine Tree Collage, Wooded Glenn Collage, and Little Orchard Collage Dies. I also used Bauble Snowflakes Dies but unfortunately they are no longer available. However, Jolly Snowflake Trio Dies are a perfect swap! I used the same cardstock colors plus I added white to die cut all the trimmings.

Now have fun layering the leaves in different colors, shapes and patterns! Layer each cluster with a snowflake and a gem. The pink sled and red sled are my favorite!

I also added some shimmer to the sled, cluster of leaves and snowflake.

All the sentiments are from the stamp set Christmas Tiles. I used bakers twine in different shades to tie the tags to some candy canes. The tags can also make cute ornaments!
