Instead of making a card, I thought this holly wreath would make a great Christmas gift tag. It is never too early to start getting ready for Christmas!
The banner gift tag base is a 2-1/2" x 5" piece of Crumb Cake cardstock stamped with the Hardwood background stamp in Soft Suede ink. The tag is topped with a 3/4" x 2-1/2" piece of Garden Green cardstock embossed with the Holly Embossing Folder.
The Merry Christmas greeting comes from the Santa's Sleigh stamp set in the Annual Catalog. To make the greeting on two lines instead of one, I first used the brush end of a Basic Black Stampin' Write Marker to "ink up" the word Christmas only and stamped it inside the wreath. Then I cleaned the stamp really well before "inking up" the Merry with the brush end of the marker and stamped it above Christmas.
I added a gold ribbon tie to attach the gift tag to a gift bag and a gold bow to the wreath for a bit of sparkle.
At first glance, Hello Easter appears to be a single occasion stamp set, but after working with it for awhile, I can really envision more occasions that Hello Easter would be perfect for, especially all of the little flowers and leaves stamps!
Have you discovered other occasions to use the Hello Easter stamp set for? I would love to see what you make!
Thanks for stopping by!
