Happy Saturday Mama Elephant friends!

Today I'm sharing a gift tag idea showcasing the brand new Tags A Lot Creative Cuts Die Collection. I've used the second largest tag for my project today and adorned the tag with images and/or die cuts from Pandamonium, Cozy Christmas, Landscape Trio, No Peeking and Confetti.

I die cut the second largest tag from some khaki cardstock and used a stencil and embossing paste to add "falling snow" to the background of my design. Once the embossing paste dried, I adhered a hole reinforcement die cut with the largest of the three designs in the Tags A Lot Creative Cuts Die Collection.

I die cut two additional tags from white cardstock and used the Landscape Trio Creative Cuts dies to create "snow drifts" along the bottom of my tag. 

 

I die cut the banner from vellum using the Tags A Lot Creative Cuts dies and stamped and embossed a greeting from the No Peeking Stamp Set on the banner. I wrapped one end of the banner around the top layer of "snow" and stapled it in place with the Tiny Attacher. I adhered the snow drift to the tag with foam adhesive.

I stamped Santa from Cozy Christmas and the standing panda bear from Pandamonium on smooth white cardstock and colored in the images. I die cut both using the coordinating Cozy Christmas Creative Cuts die and Pandamonium Creative Cuts die. I trimmed the santa hat from the rest of the image and glued it in place on top of the panda's head. I adhered the santa panda to my tag using foam adhesive.

I stamped, colored and die cut three of the gift packages from Cozy Christmas, die cut the images and adhered them to my tag.

I finished the design with a sprinkling of glitter paper confetti created with the Confetti Creative Cuts die.
