Festive Tag-Making Fun: A Quick Project for the Holiday Season

 

Hello friends! Ericka from Strangely Creative here and I hope your Thanksgiving has been filled with joy, family, and delicious food—and maybe even a little holiday shopping! If you’re like me, you’ve got your eye on some crafty goodies during the Black Friday sales. Don’t forget to check out the  Topflight sale for some amazing finds, whether you’re shopping for the crafters in your life or treating yourself.


 

Today, I’m sharing a simple yet striking holiday tag that’s perfect for gifts, decor, or just adding a touch of handmade magic to your festivities. This tag features the whimsical PaperArtsy JOFY Mini 01 stamp paired with the vibrant Lavinia Chartreuse and Emerald Green Acrylic Sprays. Let’s dive in!


Step 1: Creating the Background

To start, I sprayed my tag with a mix of Emerald Green and Chartreuse Acrylic Sprays. These colors blend beautifully and bring a fresh, festive vibe to the project. Once the background dried, I used white embossing powder with the JOFY Mini 07 stamp to add delicate, snowy details that pop against the bold green backdrop.


Step 2: Adding Layers and Texture

Next, I brought in some pattern and texture by adhering PaperArtsy Printed Tissue 9 to the tag. For this step, I used Mattint in Greenstone as my glue—its smooth finish ensures a seamless application. I love how the tissue adds visual interest and depth without overpowering the design.

Step 3: Adding a Golden Touch

Every holiday project needs a little sparkle, right? I grabbed my Studio Light Paint Pens and added subtle gold accents to the tag. It’s amazing how a few shimmering details can elevate the entire look!

 

Step 4: Finishing Touches

Finally, I stamped the festive "Noel" sentiment from the PaperArtsy Kate Crane 007 set. This playful font tied the whole piece together, giving it a charming holiday flair.

Ready to Gift

And voilà! My festive tag is complete. It’s such a fun and easy project to whip up, and it’s versatile enough to use for all sorts of holiday crafting.

Thank you for stopping by today! I hope you have a wonderful holiday weekend filled with love, laughter, and maybe a little time to create. Stay tuned—I’ll be back tomorrow with more Christmas card inspiration to keep those holiday vibes going strong.

Happy crafting!
