I Love Christmas! I love all the preparations (when I start early enough) and I love celebrating the birth of Jesus with friends and family. This will be one of the tags I mass produce for gifts this year. It is from the single stamp collection seen here.
There are a few tricks to making this tag...
To get the tag shape I inserted the Cherry Cobbler cardstock into the framelit as shown. I only wanted the tag hole to cut so I inserted the cardstock on TOP of the framelit with only the top-center portion under the framelit. Make sense?
I did the same with the stamped image but held it down just a bit.
The result is a perfectly cut hole for the Cherry Cobbler Chevron Ribbon which was looped through and tied with Cherry Cobbler Baker's Twine.
I can't wait to wrap presents - I guess I better start shopping :)
You can order your stamping supplies anytime right here

Happy Stamping!

Dang - what a BRILLIANT way to create this tag in layers! Thanks so much for sharing this!
Hi Carla...just finding this, looking for an inspiring way to make some tags...I LOVE this, but in my effort, I am getting an ugly "ridge" along the edges of the stamped tag...I layered it the way you demo here, but mine shows the edges of the die on three sides of the tag. Not cool! Any tips??
Thanks!
Hi Kimberly,
I hope you were able to figure out how to get a clean cut. I would first try to reduce the pressure of your sandwich. Each Big Shot can be slightly different in the amount of space between the platform and the roller. If you are using the standard platform you would open all of the tabs. Hope this helps.
Thank you for commenting!
