I wanted to make something fun for New Years!

In case you're wondering, there are bead necklaces in the cone bag, and my tag is a super fun shaker tag!

My tag is made up of five layers - my Big Shot got some exercise on this one! :) 

Here is a quick little tutorial on how I put my tag together...
I started with a tag cut from plain black cardstock, using my Treat Tag Die (from Jaded Blossom). My next layer is the smaller tag die (the Treat Tag die comes with two sizes of tag dies) stamped with the New Years Subway art stamp from the Holiday Treat Tags set. I used the larger of the two tag dies to cut out two tags from black foam (from WalMart). To make them look like a 'frame', I lined up the smaller of the tag dies in the center and ran them through my Big Shot again. I cut one more layer out of clear acetate.
To put the layers together I adhered my white layer onto my black layer and added one foam 'frame' on top using glossy accents. Once that was dry, I sprinkled in my confetti and glitter. Then I glued my clear acetate layer on the foam and added the second foam frame on the acetate. And done! :)

Here is what I used to make my project...
- Holiday Treat Tags from Jaded Blossom
- Jaded Blossom Treat Tag Die
- Cone Bag from Jaded Blossom
- confetti/glitter
- clear acetate
- foam sheets
- glossy accents

I used some small white bags that I have had for a while now to create some super fun treat bags! 

I stamped the Trick or Treat stamp directly onto my bag, then stamped the image again on a piece of orange cardstock. I fussy cut the little pumpkin and added it over the original pumpkin, using a pop dot. 

The bag was still a little plain so I added some color using a couple pieces of green chevron washi tape from the Trendy Twine store.

Yumm-A-Lish

I seriously cannot believe Easter is already this weekend!!! We still have SO much snow! I guess the egg hunt will be in the house this year! I have a quick little project and tutorial to share with you today! Before I get started with my project, I wanted to let you know there is an awesome Easter sale going on over at Peppermint Creative you won't want to miss!! :) 

Supplies Used:
- Peppermint Creative Hoppy Easter Papers and Hoppy Easter Elements
- Silhouette Software
- Plain white card-stock
- Ribbon
- Adhesive pearls
- Foam stickers (pop dots)
- Two sided tape

I created my cut out elements using my Silhouette machine. If you don’ t have a digital cutting machine you can print the elements you’d like use with your printer and cut them by hand if you have some patience and a good pair of craft scissors. 

Here’s how I created the print & cut elements using Silhouette Studio

Step 1: In Silhouette Studio open a new document create a rectangle for the base of your topper. The size will vary depending on the size of the bag you will be using – my bag was 4 inches wide, so my rectangle measured 4 ½” x 5”

NOTE: Keep in mind your topper will be folded in half later on, so if you want your topper to be 2 ½” tall, then double it to make it 5” tall.

Step 2: Open window on your computer where your digital paper is stored. Make sure rectangle in Silhouette Software is selected, then drag and drop the desired digital paper over onto the rectangle to fill it with the pattern

Step 3: Under FILE, select MERGE and open up the following elements: easter basket, candy corn/jelly beans and flowers

Step 4: Scale all elements down to fit onto your topper base. (Keep in mind your rectangle will end up being half as tall). Scale/arrange candy to fit into your easter basket.

Step 5: To create a white border around all the elements, use the TRACE function. Use the SELECT TRACE AREA to create a square around element, uncheck HIGH PASS FILTER and increase THRESHOLD slider all the way to the right. Select TRACE (this will create an outline around element)

Step 6: Select outline around element, open the OFFSET WINDOW. Choose OFFSET, use slider to achieve the amount of white border around element. Go back and delete original TRACE outline

Step 7: Check to make sure the elements will be cut along the proper lines by using the Cut Style window.

Step 8: Align all elements on mat within registration marks

Step 9: Send to printer and feed through Silhouette to cut elements out!

Now for the assembly:

Step 1: Add pearls to flowers and ribbon to basket

Step 2: Fold topper base in half, add foam stickers to elements and adhere to topper

Step 3: Using two sided tape (one strip on each side of the inside/bottom of the topper) adhere to treat bag. 

Pretty easy, right?!? Hope you enjoyed my tutorial today!!! There will be more where this came from!! ;)
