Christmas Gift Tags with Lori Whitlock

Hi everyone! I'm hopping along with Lori Whitlock's Creative Team for our December blog hop and for my project, I created some cute Christmas gift tags. They are really fun to make and super easy! Take a look ...


To make your own Christmas gift tags:

1.  Duplicate Lori's tag file several times on an 8.5x11" mat in your Silhouette software.


2.  Go to Lori's shop and download Christmas shapes and phrases ... both work great!

3.  Resize the phrases and shapes so that they fit into the tag shape, and add fill color if needed.



4.  Select the Christmas shape or phrase and hit "no cut" in the cut settings. Be sure that the tag shape is still set to cut.

5.  Once you have colors filled, shapes sized, and cut settings chosen, PRINT the tags on to white cardstock. Be sure registration marks on turned on!

6.  Once printed, use your Silhouette to cut the tags out. You can also create an OFFSET background to mat the tag on colored card stock. 
 

7.  Finally, add ribbon, Doodlebug's chunky twine, gems, or other details to really make your tags the highlight of your Christmas packaging.  



I know that was a quick tutorial, so let me know if you have any questions by leaving a comment.  Now, back to Lori's blog hop ....
