So a bunch of us are getting together today to celebrate Christmas, you know in July, over at Elizabeth Craft Designs.  I thought i might be fun to take some of the new critter dies and create some gift holiday gift tags.

Step One: Die cut the some True Green Soft Finish Cardstock with the new Diagonal Stitched Fishtails die three times.

Step Two:  Using a 1/8 inch hole punch, add a hold to the top of each tag.

Step Three:  Die cut the new Raccoon die set using some 90lb White Soft Finish Cardstock.

Step Four:  Using alcohol markers, color the die cut pieces.

Step Five:  Using some Kids Choice Glue, adhere the die cut pieces together.

Step Six:  Repeat steps 3-5 using the new Winter Bird die set.

Step Seven:  Repeat steps 3-5 again using the new Fox die set.

Step Eight:  Adhere the critters to the bottoms of each gift tag.

Step Nine:  Using the new Joyful Wishes sentiment stamp set, add sentiments to each of the three gift tags.  I like how the stamp set has both Christmas and generic holiday sentiments.

Step Ten:  Add some snowflakes stamps from the Joyful Wishes stamp set to each tag.  Finally, add some ribbon to each tag to finish off each look.

Here is the finished raccoon tag.

The finished winter bird tag.

And the finished fox tag.
