Happy Wednesday Ai Fans!!!
Watch video tutorial here!!!
Let's get started by creating our tag gift card holder base! To do this we will be using the Ai Gift Card Pocket Die Set (5811). We will be doing something a bit different with this by creating a tag card with a gift card pocket on the back side of the tag card. I will show you exactly how to die cut your cardstock and where to place the score line and adhesive in order to achieve this fun card design!
Next, we will be adding some color to our tag card pieces. For one of the cards, we will use a beautiful Lacey Floral Stencil and for the other one we will use a wonderful Brick Stencil. Let's add some color by using our Tim Holtz Distress Inks to create an ombre' look on the tags. The lacey floral will be in Oranges and the bricks will be in Fresh Greens. Basically, we will go from the darkest ink to the lightest ink, and this will help to ground our scene a bit better!
Now we will stamp and color these adorable Ai Easter Bunny Puppet (5869) images. These are like little paper dolls that you can dress up! I don't know what it is about these little puppets...but I just love them! There is an adorable Ai Snowman Puppet set that was released in the Fall and I had a blast with that set as well! I will link that here if you would like to take a look:
For the coloring today we will be using the Zig Clean Color Real Brush Pens in the following colors: Blender, Sugared Almond Pink, Yellow, Bright Yellow, Orange, Scarlet Red, Lt Blue, Smoky Teal, Cobalt Blue, Lt Green, Beige, Mid Brown, Lt Gray.
This set does include the coordinating dies so you can easily cut these out and then we can easily assemble the little girl bunny and the little boy bunny.
Let's stamp a few cute sentiments for the inside and the outside of our tag card using the Ai Easter Sentiments Set (5733). The inside will say "Hippity Hoppity Some Bunny Loves You" and the outside will just say "Hop". For the sentiment on the inside of the card we will stamp it and then cut it out using the scallop circle die from the Ai Journal Oval Frames (5588) Set.
Let's add the bunnies and a little heart. We can use our alcohol markers to change the color of these hearts from white to orange and yellow. This is an easy way to change the color of your embellishments to coordinate perfectly with your projects!
Go ahead and pop a gift card, special note, tickets or anything you like in the back pocket on your tag card and make someone's day extra special. You could even add a few extra paper doll items into the pocket, such as the clothing, bows, shoes, etc., so that the recipient could build their own paper doll!
Thank you so much for joining me today! Have a fun and crafty day!!!
