Hi there once more! I am excited to be again on the weblog at present with some concepts for methods to make use of the Scalloped Die Reduce Tags. I at all times use a ton of tags in my December Day by day tasks, so this product (discovered within the elaborations part) was actually enjoyable for me to play with!
However earlier than we get to that, I wished to point out you an instance utilizing final yr’s album of how cute they appear while you merely slip them in a pocket. I like the distinction between the scalloped edges and the straight edges, and the little peek on the subsequent web page it provides you!
I’ve two tasks for you at present. One the place I alter the tags themselves and one other the place I create cute pockets for them utilizing the 3×8 vellum envelope.
PROJECT ONE
My first thought was to truly lower down the tags in order that I may match 4 on a 6×8 web page. I like the look of only a trace of a scallop on the underside of every tag. Watch the method video under to see how they arrive collectively after which try a number of images of the venture in course of in addition to the ultimate format.
I actually wished to suit 4 tags on this format, so I made a decision to chop down the tags to make them smaller. I lower off the scallops on each side and lower the highest off proper under the outlet. I like how they now have only a trace of scallop!
To additional rework my tags, I added a .75 inch strip of patterned paper on the high. I selected to chop down this plaid 3×4 card from the mini equipment as a result of it had a small scale sample and I like how colourful it’s.
Then I used one other tag as a template to chop down the corners, punched new holes on the high, and embellished with gold numbers a a pink ribbon.
I adhered my tags evenly to the background paper to present me flexibility later if I wish to swap up the patterned paper or resolve to place the tags on 3×4 playing cards as a substitute.
I am excited to fill these cute tags with a narrative!
PROJECT TWO
For my second venture, I actually wished to seek out or make a pocket for the scallops to peek out of. The one pocket I may discover on this yr’s assortment that match this tag is the 3×8 vellum pocket from the envelope bundle. Whereas these tags are approach too brief for that pocket, I actually liked how they seemed inside, so I made a decision to make it work by remodeling it into two pockets!
Watch the method video under to see how I made that occur after which try extra images of the method and the ultimate venture.
First, I lower off the underside of the pocket proper the place I wished the tag to peek out (left), then I trimmed off the highest of the pocket to chop off the notch (proper) and make it the identical measurement above the outlet punches as the opposite one. I used the textual content on the sample as my information as a result of they’re in the identical location above each units of gap punches.
Then I used washi tape to present myself a information to sew alongside the underside of the highest pocket after which trimmed off the surplus. I ended up additionally stitching alongside the underside of the opposite pocket simply to make them match.
I embellished the pockets with some wooden veneer stars, gold glitter stars, and a white puffy quantity. I additionally added a pop of vivid inexperienced ribbon.
SUPPLIES
I hope these two tasks obtained you impressed to play with these tags and the entire different enjoyable scallops on this yr’s assortment!
I’ll see you once more subsequent week and within the meantime, yow will discover me on Instagram at @jill.drangsholt if you wish to comply with my December Day by day journey and my different artful adventures.
