I have a Christmas tag SWAP due this month. As usual we have a required paper collection to use: "Christmas Wishes" by Bella Blvd. I designed this tag for the SWAP and asked my husband, "How do you like it?". His evaluation: the tag is going to be worth more than the gift. Too much work for a tag, yadda, yadda, yadda. I decided to make the tag reusable. I used the arc option on the Silhouette software to create tabs under which the "to/from" card can be slid.
I am including an .svg file that will cut the tag base, the two trapezoids, the hole reinforcer, and the panel with the tabs to hold the "to/from" card. Everything else can easily be cut on the trimmer.
This is the first project I was able to use the Silhouette PixScan mat for. I stamped 25 "James - Deck the Halls" stamps using my MISTI and cut them out on the PixScan. The best part about it is that I have 25 stamps cut out and everyone of them is an original stamp.

ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous. I love that it has more to offer. Wonderful creation! So delighted you joined us at our last week's Challenge and hope you join us again for the start of another Challenge today. Leaving you with some encouragement from Psalm 62:5-6 which says, "Find rest, O my soul, in God alone; my hope comes from him. He alone is my rock and my salvation; he is my fortress, I will not be shaken." Hugs and blessing always!
