This month, our featured bundle is from the Holiday catalogue and it’s called Tags Tags Tags.  As you can see, it is true to it’s name, as it’s set to make tags for three seasons: Halloween, Christmas, and Valentines.

Tags Tags Tags Bundle (En) [153042] $44.00

One of the things to note about the stamp set and dies, is the three stamps in each holiday are connected.  This means, they all stamp at the same time, and the dies cut all three out at the same time.

The Stamparatus is a perfect tool to help with lining up these stamps with the dies.

Stamparatus [146276] $67.00

First, I cut out the tags with the dies to create a template and inserted them into the template on the Stamparatus.

Then I lined up the stamps with the template so that I could ink them up exactly as they were cut out.  This is really helpful when making multiples:

I couldn’t resist how cute the “express your elf!” stamp is, so I used it for my projects today.  The first project I want to share is this card:

I coloured the tag using my Stampin’ Blends.

The red decorative layer was made using the Ornate Frames Dies.  The one I wanted to use was too big, so I adjusted it to fit my tag – just cut out a section, and layer the other two.  No one is the wiser!

For my second project, I wanted to make a tag for the sweet Mini Curvy Keepsakes Box Dies!  Look at how tiny it is!  I love that the die fits on a 6×6″ sheet of paper:

Look at how small and cute it is!!

I layered my tag on it to finish it off:
