Good morning, afternoon, or night to you amazing crafter’s out there. Shanna here to share a little holiday inspiration!

How many of you add tags to your gifts? Or labels for the presents you give? We do but normally we buy them. This year I thought it would be fun to make some tags for bags and boxes we will be gifting the family and friends!

So for my first tag I decided to so some embossing! I grabbed my tag and wiped it with an anti-static pouch (this is so my embossing powder doesn’t stick to anything but what I want it too).

Then I push the VersaMark ink pad where I wanted it and stamped a sentiment as well. Using an embossing powder of your choice, I went with gold, you can see here the detail.

Then you heat emboss the powder. Look at how shiny that looks! How fun this will be to add to a goodies bag filled with hot chocolate and chocolate?

The next tag got some black glitter for a touch or shiny and bright! I mixed it in with some soft matte gel medium ( I used Prima but and good gel medium will work).

Spread a good layer through your stencil and clean your stencil immediately if you can or use a baby wipe if you can’t get your stencil to a wash off area (mine is the kitchen sink).

I didn’t get pictures of the last tag but it used the same method as above, instead I used a 3d gloss gel and gold glass glitter.

The stencil I used for these tags was the 12×12 Patterns stencil TCW539. Here are all three tags together. Isn’t it fun? I would love of you all to give tag making a try!

Thank you for stopping by. Shanna
