Scrap 'n Stamp ~ Bags, Tags & Gift Wrap Blog Hop

Welcome to the Scrap 'N Stamp Bags, Tags & Gift Wrap Blog Hop!

Today's hop is all about sharing some festive ideas for some bags, tags and gift wrap!

My card features the adorable "Christmas Minis" Thinlits from Sizzix!  This sweet little set contains 5 die cut shapes, snowman, Santa, gingerbread man, candy cane and holly berry plus it also includes a striped mini embossing folder (or a texture fade).

I started my little bag by stamping on some snowflakes from the Sweet November Stamps "Winter Reindeer Wishes" stamp set and the sentiments from the Jillibean Soup "Christmas Tags" stamp set in Catherine Pooler Sand Castle ink.

Next I cut a series of tags from the Hampton Arts "Birthday Banners" stamp & die set from a variety of fun patterned papers from the Echo Park "Winnie the Pooh Christmas" mega 6x6 pack of paper.

I grabbed all 5 die shapes from the Sizzix Thinlit & Texture Fade set called "Christmas Minis", and die cut them all out on white cardstock.

I used my Copic Markers to color in all of the cute layers of each die cut.  I matched the colors as well as I could to match the patterned papers.

After coloring all of the pieces, I adhered my little characters together and added them to a set of layered tags.  I used some of the candy canes and holly to decorate other tags.

Once the tags were complete, I adhered them to my kraft bag using some 3D foam to make them pop off the bag.

To finish off my bag, I added some White Gel Pen details to the characters eyes and icing details to the gingerbread men. I also took some white acrylic paint and splattered it across all the tags and the bag to mimic some snow.  The perfect touch!

Another cute bag to send something fun for Christmas!
