Welcome! If you are following along the blog hop you should have arrived at my blog from Ira’s.
I’m sharing two seasonal tags created with Poppystamps birdhouse and bird dies. I like having tags available that can be used for gift giving throughout the winter months. I also designed these tags with male recipients in mind – I’ve got two sons and a husband, so I’m always in need of gift-wrapping supplies that aren’t too girly.
The first tag pairs the Carolina birdhouse with the Peaceful bird. I cut the birdhouse several times and then pieced it together as I wanted the roof to be white, as if snow had fallen on the top. The snowflakes are the center of the small poinsettia die set. I finished the tag with a stamped sentiment, ribbon and baker’s twine. The tag measures 3″ wide x 5″ tall.
My second tag, which measures 2 1/2″ wide x 4″ tall, pairs the Evanston bird house with the Nestled bird, along with the “snowflakes.” Again, I finished the tag with a stamped sentiment, ribbon and baker’s twine.
Be sure to leave comments on all of the blogs – there’s hidden candy along the way. There will be three winners, who will each receive a prize. You have until December 8 to leave comments. Winners will be announced on December 9. You can get all of the details about the hop, including information about the prizes, on the Poppystamps Blog.
