I like things to match, so I'm challenging myself to make tags to match wrapping paper I have on hand. My goal is to each day find a tag that I'm inspired by (not hard at all with all the beautiful and creative designers participating), pick a wrapping paper or a gift bag, and when I can, use products from the sponsor of the day as well.
Today I'm using the same gift bag that I used yesterday. Last year I bought a bulk package of them and I still have several on hand. I'll need a few more tags that match it so you'll be seeing more of this red and green plaid bag in the days ahead.
Today's sponsor in Pink & Main, a company that I don't have any products from. Their design team made some adorable tags. I love the little owls and wreaths that Zsofia and Carol used, so my tag is inspired from theirs. You can see Zsofia's tags here and Carol's here.
For the wreath, I used Lawn Fawn's (also one of Tracey's sponsors) Large and Small Wreath die sets.
The little owl is from the MFT Wild Woodland set and colored with Copic markers. I thought the little wreath tag could also be used as a tree ornament, so I added a separate and removable small oblong tag for the "to" and "from" information.
Many thanks to Pink and Main for being a sponsor.

Nancy, this is such a great idea! The owl on the wreath tag will make a sweet little Christmas tree ornament and I love that you added a special, decorated tag for the personal info. Very clever!
ReplyDeleteThank you Cindy. I've used that Lawn Fawn wreath set a lot!
DeleteI love this combination of tag and bag! The small tag is such a good idea too as the lovely wreath and owl will make a super ornament!

Thank you Susan. I appreciate your kind comments!
ReplyDeleteAren't you clever to make your tags to go with the packaging you have! I totally love the wreath tag you made which is perfect with the beautiful plaid bag!
ReplyDeleteThanks Greta. It's a bit of a challenge some days to find a way to pull all the design elements together, but satisfying when the tag is done!
DeleteWhat a lovely tag. Thank you for participating in the 25 Days of Christmas Tags!
