Welcome to another week at CASEing the Catty, this week we are taking inspiration from the tags in the Holiday catalogue. There is such a range of tags in this catty so there is much to be inspired by.
I chose the Tin of Tags which caught my eye when I first looked through the catalogue. I purchased the stamp set for myself, and the kit for my daughter who also fell in love with it.
I wanted to see how I could re-create the tags using products not from the kit. As I was working on them I started to veer away from the original designs and am really happy with how they turned out.
Here is a closer look at the tags:
I used the circle stamp from Perfectly Wrapped for the border on the oval tag. I just love that with photopolymer stamps you can change the shape of stamps to meet your needs.
I used water colour paper for the tags and they gave the perfect effect for the background, I did try whisper white but it didn't give the right look.
These final two tags made use of the lovely trio of bakers twine, I used it to make the tassels on the tags in this set.
I hope you are inspired to join us this week, I know I can't wait to get my presents bought and wrapped so I can pop these tags on them. If you would like to join in this week, just add a picture to the link above.
Time to hop on over to Jackie's blog and see what she been inspired to create this week.

What a lovely collection of bright tags! Your hand made tassels look great, I must attempt this! Great use of the bakers twine trio.
ReplyDeleteThat is one of my favourite stamp sets from the Holiday catalogue & I love how you've created your own version of the tags. More great inspiration, thanks Monique!
ReplyDeleteThey do look lovely made with the watercolour paper, thanks for the inspiration to try a few different designs
ReplyDeleteOh I'm so glad you made the tags just with the stamp set - it looks fabulous!! All those greeting in this set are just great! And the watercolouring is totally gorgeous too.
ReplyDeleteA great CASE, Monique! I agree Tin of Tags is a great stamp set by itself.
ReplyDeleteI have this stamp set & kit too, but I really think your version is bolder & brighter! Great work Monique.
