So I have realized I am seriously short gift tags this year, so I thought I would whip up a few quickly. I am just loving how the Woodware UK Cross Stitched Christmas stamp set from White Rose Crafts made creating these gift tags so quickly.
I started by pulling out four gift tags, and stamping each of the four images onto the tag using Distress Oxide. For the Tree I used Bundled Sage. The stocking got a dabbing of Stormy Sky. The heart was stamped with Abandoned Coral and for the reindeer I used Brushed Corduroy.
Then, using my stamping platform, I stamped the needle and thread and sentiment onto the tag using VersaFine Black Onyx. I did commit the crafting sin, and snipped the sentiment so I could put it on two lines. Totally worth it.
I hand stamped a heart button onto each tag using Aged Mahogany.
I added a trimmed piece of gold ribbon from the Scrapberry "Seaside" Ribbon collection. I also added a bit of a shadow to each heart button using a black pen.
I love how simple these were to create but how cute they turned out. I also adore the fact that since I snipped the sentiment I can use the heart and 'sew happy' sentiment all year long for all my embroidery friends! Let me know in the comments below how you would use this sewing theme stamp set. Until then, Happy Crafting.
Simple and so effective... What a useful little stamp set!
