Lawnscaping Tags!

Happy Tuesday Lawnscapers! Kim with you this morning and this is my last post as a FIT Team member, I can't believe how fast these six months have gone by! I have had such fun participating with a wonderful group of ladies! A big thanks goes to Laurel and Chrissie, I have thoroughly enjoyed every minute!  For my post, I thought that another tag project would be appropriate to go along with the current challenge and I, probably, like most of you am producing tags like crazy for Christmas.


I am currently obsessed with the Stitched Circle Tag Die, it is just perfect in my opinion! I finally broke down and purchased the Snowy Backdrop die and I used that with a mix of green distress inks and sprayed it with Perfect Pearls, I love the way it turned out! I cut six white pieces from Neena Solar White for the background and the back pieces for my message. I then cut two more for the snow from the same tag and used the Lawn Fawn Stitched Snow Borders.  I then used the Alpaca from Winter Alpaca, the bunnies from Snow Day and that bunny on a sled is Winter Bunny. Coloured them with Copics and used my White Jellyroller for added detail. Finished them of with Lawn Trimmings!



The lucky winner of this challenge will receive a $25.00 gift card from the fabulous Ellen Hutson on-line store!

Lawnscaping Challenge - Tag it!

Happy Monday! I am starting to get very excited for the Christmas break! My day job has been unbelievably busy these last few months, it is actually the reason I began this wonderful hobby... To de-stress! The new Lawnscaping challenge is fitting as I am knee deep in making my own holiday tags! I had such fun making these, the new Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle Tag Die is simply perfect for mass production! Add a few critters and bam you have a winner! 


I used a few sets of Lawn Fawn stamps for these four tags, Toboggan Together, Winter Alpaca and the Owl is from Critters in the Arctic. I started out thinking I would make shaker tags out of these and die cut my circles out of metallic papers (that I love for the holidays). I also used another Lawn Fawn Stitched Circle to cut out the middle of the tag. As I started putting the tags together, I really felt they did not need to be shaker tags. I cut some vellum with the same smaller Lawn Fawn circle die embossed some snow with an embossing folder. The background is Neena Solar white, I then stamped multiple trees from the Toboggan together set and placed them both in front and behind the vellum. Coloured my Critters with Copics and put them all together including a white backing piece to write my message. To finish them off, I used a variety of Lawn Trimmings twine to tie to packages!
