This is the week of baking and prepping in my family. My sister asked me to make her some tags to add to her Cocoa Mix that she gives out each year. I knew right away what I wanted to do! I hope you will like these cute and easy tags. I am sharing this project not only with my readers but the readers at Pink By Design blog.
First I cut 6 sets of circles using my built in Imagine Shapes. The shapes were "filled" using my Imagine with Kate's Kitchen. I have owned this cartridge for awhile, but this is my first time using it. I really like the colors and patterns. The circles are sized at 3.2 inches, 2.9 inches, 2.6 inches. I cut the little hot cocoa image at 1.5 inches combined layers (this means it cuts flat). All the shapes were inked with Frayed Burlap and Ripe Persimmon Distress Ink.
I stamped this sentiment from Pink By Design Tags and Treats set. I curved "just add water" when I mounted the stamp so it would bend around the tag.
Then I assembled the tags. I used pop dots on the cocoa to make it stand up a bit.
Finally, I punched a hole through the top of the tag and added some twine and ribbon.
I made 6 of these in under 1 hour- 20 minutes was spent looking at patterns to use for my circles. I always do that. Anyways, I hope you enjoyed this project and maybe it will inspire you to dress up those homemade goods. Have a creative day!
