Hi, everyone! For today’s project I made a tag gift card holder using the new Dylusions Christmas Collage.  This is an easy, colorful, fun project you can give to a friend or hang on your tree during the holidays.   I hope you enjoy, let’s get started.

Step 1: Use baby wipe technique to cover both tags front and back with Cherry Pie Paint. Then, use Postbox Red to add border accents to both tags front and back.

Step 2: Use Dylusions Large Tree Border Stencil with Blending Tool to add holly leaves to tags with Cut Grass Shimmer Paint.

Step 3:   Cut one of the #8 tags in half.

Step 4: Cut out tree, tree trunk, small star, large star, large word Merry and small word Xmas and small circles from Dylusions Collage Sheets

Step 5:  Affix the word Merry to the front of the tag that was uncut. Then add the tree, trunk and star slightly over the word Merry.

Step 6:   Affix bottom half of cut tag to the back of decorated tag.  Make sure you only glue the bottom, left, and right side of card piece, leave the top open.

Step 7:  Add the word Xmas to bottom portion of the half tag you just glued to back of card. Then, finish decorating the back with a large star and the small circles. 

Step 8: Trace all decorations with a Black Paint Pen

Step 9: Tie washi tape to top hole and add a gift card to pocket.

If you would like to take the project a step further you can create an envelope with a full page from the Dylusions Christmas Collage Sheets.

Step 1:  Pick out a fully decorated page from the Dylusions Christmas Collage Sheets.  Trim away the white border on all four sides.  Lay the sheets decorated side down and place tag in the middle.  Fold up the bottom 2 inches onto the tag.

Step 2:  Fold right side of sheet over the tag. Then fold the left side and glue edge.  Fold corners at the top and then fold down to cover the back and  seal.

Step 3:  Attach the unused top half of tag to the front of the envelope.   Stamp or write to: and from:,  or an address, or a personal note.
