Merry Little {MDS} Christmas Tags

It's time for me to get busy and start wrapping Christmas presents to put under my tree.  And if you are anything like me, you are always digging through your wrapping paper collection looking for tags for your packages.  Well, dig no more!  In just a few minutes, I was able to create some fun and festive tags in MDS, print them off and punch the tops with the awesome tag topper punches!

I love that you can create tags to match your wrapping paper all with a few clicks of your mouse.  No more mismatched paper and tags!

 

Be sure to head on over to SSINK today to check out some other fun tag ideas!

 

Happy Stamping!!



Set Sail on the Open Sea

Setting sail on the {warm} open sea sounds so good to me right now...dreams are free right?  It's what I have to get me through these endless days of cold, wintery weather.  We are on day two of two hour school delays due to freezing rain.  I wouldn't be surprised to see it canceled if the rain doesn't stop...it's a slippery, yucky mess out there!  So, I'm just gonna keep on dreaming of those warm open seas and sail through this winter :-)

Freshly Made Sketches has another great sketch this week that got my creative juices flowing and inspired me to pull out an old favorite...

Supplies Used:

Paper ~ Basic Black, Very Vanilla, Typeset DSP

Ink ~ Memento, Crumb Cake, Sahara Sand, Baked Brown Sugar, Tempting Turquoise, Pool Party, Real Red

Stamp Set ~ The Open Sea

Other Supplies ~ Linen Thread

 

I've kind of been addicted to the Typeset DSP lately and love the map image...it pairs perfectly with this stamp set!

 

Off to get ready for my stamp club tonight.  I hope the weather clears up so all of my stamping friends can make it here safely!

 

Happy Stamping!

These colors seem perfect for a cold, wintery day!  (You'll have to forgive me...I messed up and used Pistachio Pudding instead of Pool Party...that's what I get for just looking at the colors and not actually reading them!!!  OOPS!)

We're also celebrating December Birthday's over at Stylin' Stampin' INKspiration, so I paired up the super cute Dear Heart with the color challenge for the perfect little boy birthday card!

Wanna know a secret?  I've had this set for MONTHS and this is the first time I've used it!  You can be sure I will be using it again....it is so cute!!!
