It's October! What a gorgeous month...one that has started out so beautifully here! Since it's October 1st, it must mean that the new Papertrey Ink Make it Market Kit: Wonderland is available, yes? As promised, I have more projects to share with you. I'll be sharing them just as often as possible.
For my projects today, I used the Gift Card Cozy die along with the Holiday Tag Along die to create gift card pockets and tags for the holidays. Along with using paper from the Wonderland kit, I mixed in some of the Pure Poppy Bitty Big as well...so perfect for Christmas crafting.
And, because I adore the old truck stamp and die from the Wonderland kit, I decided to make them the main focus on my tags, complete with a tree propped up in the truck bed. Betsy's creative mind and all of the wonderful details she thought out for this kit makes creating so much fun :).
I love the vintage feel to the old truck image, and the first thing that came to my mind when I first saw it was GINGHAM! I adore gingham and love the cozy, homespun, country feel it adds, so I used the Background Basics: Gingham stamp set across the bottom of each tag, stamping in Spring Moss, Aqua Mist, Berry Sorbet, and Pure Poppy.
I used stencils from the Wonderland kit as well as the Holiday Tag Along kit at the top of each of my tags, sponging on Aqua Mist ink to create, soft, snowy scenes.
I love the tiny, delicate floral images included in the Wonderland kit and added a few of them to each tag, loving the softness they bring to my homespun little holiday tags and their holders.
Wishing you a delightful week ahead. Thanks for visiting!
