Looking to add some sparkle and pink under your tree this year? Check out these gorgeous winter snowflake tags!
In todays post our designer, Dominique, wanted to focus on some holiday tags. Dominique said, “I really enjoying buying gifts and then wrapping them up in pretty paper. It’s a really nice touch to have a handmade tag for each gift. With handmade tags you can customize them however you please. You can have a theme where your wrapping paper and tags coordinate.” We are loving this month full of creative gift tags and hope you are inspired.

- First you will want to create a tag. You can do this by using dies, such as 5514-02D Holiday Tags Die or you can create one using your paper trimmer and a hole puncher. I took the approach of using my We R Memory Keepers The Works All-In-One Tool.
- Once your tag shape is cut, you are going to want to use your stencil and embossing paste. I used the
4123 Snowflake Stencil for my tag. - Once you are complete with applying your embossing paste, remove the stencil and set in warm water until you are ready to clean it. Keeping the stencil in warm water will prevent the embossing past from drying on it.
- While the embossing paste is still wet, sprinkle on some glitter. Then set aside to dry.
- Now die cut a few snowflakes using 5716-02D Large Snowflake Die from silver glitter card stock and set aside.
- To create the little ring that goes around the hole of the tag, I used my Crop-a-Dile multi punch tool. I first cut a 3/16″ hole into some scrap silver glitter card stock, then I punched around it on the 5/16″ setting.
- Apply glue to the ring and also to the snow flakes, then set something heavy on top until the glue dries.
- While the glue dries, work on creating your sentiment strip. Using Posey from Color Fuse Set #4, stamp the “Winter Wishes” stamp from 36045 Let it Snow Set. I then cut out it using one of the banner dies from 5605-03D Off Set Tags Die. After I trimmed it down a bit to make it a tad slimmer.
- I added some double sided tape to the banner and adhered it to my card.
- Lastly, I added some twine and ribbon.
These Pink Winter Gift Tags really do sparkle and are such a fun way to add some color to our gifts. We hope you loved this project as much as we do. Follow us on Instagram for more project inspiration and behind the scenes looks. Merry Crafting!
