Yay, it’s finally here, the day our July-December 2021 Mini Catalog goes live! Everyone can now order from our super duper “holiday” catalog! I wanted to show off some of my favorite designer paper, Painted Christmas, along with Sale-a-bration, Be Dazzling Specialty Paper. That’s right, we’re having a second Sale-a-bration!!!

Christmas Banner
The first thing I did was cut the Playful Alphabet letters, M-E-R-R-Y, from the new Be Dazzling Specialty Paper. This paper is amazing, and it’s one of the FREE Sale-a-bration items, with a qualifying order.
Next, I used a Tailor Made Tags Die to create a tag for each letter on my banner. I wanted the tags to be shorter, and to help explain how I did this, I took a picture. Placing the first cut piece, as shown, I was able to keep the tags the same size.

After gluing the letters to the tags, and placing them on Dimensionals, I strung them with this wonderful, Playful Pets Trim. This ribbon is red & white, and perfect for Christmas, don’t you think?
I taped the ends of the ribbon to the back of this fabulous, Painted Christmas Designer Paper. It was cut with an Ornate Layers Die, and glued to the Thick Basic White card base, 8 1/2″ X 5 1/2″, folded at 4 1/4″.

Prior to gluing the banner piece to the card base, I embossed the card front with the new Timber Embossing Folder. I like the added texture, and know it will be getting lots of use.
“Christmas” is from the Snowman Season Stamp Set, stamped in Real Red Ink, and cut with the same Tailor Made Tags die. I gave it some Playful Pets Trim, and attached it with Dimensionals.

I was inspired by TGIF.

Thank you for the hint on how to make the “hanging banner tag” a bit smaller on your card. However, for the life of me, I can’t figure out how to do it!! Did you die cut the regular size tag first, then cut it on the top to the size you wanted and put it thru the top of the die again with the small circle punch?
Hi Casey,
I sent you an email.
Love your card with the cute tags and lovely paper. Love the woodgrain background too. TFS
Thank you, JoAnn! I’m so glad you like it!
