Thank you for your time and checking out my second project for the week. As promised, this project is what I call a "freebie" a "two for one". Before I begin, let me start by showing you the project. It's a Christmas tag, super versatile, we always need tags!
You might ask, what is so cool about this tag? well, it was created by using the spent cardstock I used to die cut snowflakes for my challenge project. I was about to throw it away when I realized it was a perfect stencil and I could use it to create another project.
I used two shades of the same color, a darker and lighter one to create a bit of interest.
I used the darker ink on one side and the lighter on the other, resulting in an ombre effect. Then I die cut the tag and stamped a sentiment directly onto the tag. I also added white ribbon and cute little pom poms for a whimsical finish. This tag took me five minutes to create!!!
You can even save the stencil with the dies and use for future projects.
I hope this technique inspires you to look at your waste and explore other options to recycle and/or reuse. Not only you save on materials but also on time!
