Christmas in July 2022 {BYSHC} Linky Party ~ Beary Christmas Tags ~ Not 2 Shabby

Hello there crafty friend!

I'm super excited to share my holiday projects for today... tags!! They turned out SO cute! I just fell in love with the sweet Beary Christmas stamp set from returning Sponsor Not 2 Shabby and couldn't wait to play with them as soon as they got to my house!! It was impossible to pick just one so I inked them all up. Aren't they just THE cutest!?!

 

These adorable bears and the coordinating dies are the Stamp and Die of the Month... a wonderful subscription available at Not 2 Shabby. You can sign up to receive the Stamp and Die of the month each month with an 18% discount or you can select to just buy the stamp and die of the month without signing up for that monthly subscription at the full retail price. I love that you get the option to just buy the combo!

Anywho, I paired them up with the darling Meowy Christmas paper pad from returning Sponsor Newton's Nook Designs. Having the papers picked out really helped when it came to coloring up these cuties! I stamped the four bears with Memento Tuxedo Black ink... this is my favorite ink when stamping with clear stamps because it cleans off nicely. I then die cut the four bears with the coordinating die. 

I also die cut the four tag bases from Stampers Select White card stock from Papertrey Ink with the Make A Tag {die set} from Sponsor Unity Stamp Co. I then die cut the smallest tags from the pattern paper. And then I got to coloring with my Copic markers:

I adhered the tags together and used my Crop-a-dile to punch the hole in the tops. I used a white organdy ribbon that I tied with a candy cane twine. I also looped a skinny green ribbon through the hole so I can attach the tags to gifts. I popped up the bears on the tags with foam tape. And then to finish them all off I stamped the sentiment which also has coordinating dies... bonus! I adhered the sentiments to the tags with a combination of liquid glue and foam tape so that they will lay flat on the tag. I just love how these turned out! I hope to make a card or two with these cuties too... love them!
