Blog Blitz featuring Merry Christmas Tag
by Olga Direktorenko

Uncategorized

Hello crafty friends, 

The new die I'm introducing today is a Merry Christmas Tag:

It perfectly coordinates with the second largest of Main Street Tags. It is also quite versatile – the sentiment can be trimmed off and used on its own and so is the frame, so it's a 2 in 1 type of die.

I have used it to create a clear shaker tag and I just love that it completely hides all the fused seams and gives the project an elegant and finished look.

You can find some photos and a VIDEO of this project below.

GIVEAWAY:

To WIN this die just leave a comment below by October 7. For more chances to win comment on every post from September 21 to October 3 – each of them has its own giveaway!
