Crafty Labels with Nichol

Hi there! Nichol here today with an idea on creating kraft holiday gift tags stamped with pigment inks showcasing the new Crafty Labels Stamp Set and coordinating dies. I paired the labels images from the Crafty Labels Stamp Set with greetings from the Retro Holiday Labels Stamp Set for these kraft holiday gift tags. I stamped all the images with pigment inks because the pigment ink won't fade on the "colored" cardstock. I love how the ink colors retain their vibrancy and how the ink looks on kraft cardstock especially.

I stamped the label image from the Crafty Labels Stamp Set on kraft cardstock using Apple Pigment Ink. I used the MISTI stamp positioner tool so I could stamp the image one on top of another a couple times to make sure I got full coverage. I stamped greetings from the Retro Holiday Labels Stamp Set on the tag "fronts" with white pigment ink. I stamped an additional message and "to/from" from the Crafty Labels Stamp Set on the "backs" of the tags with white pigment ink.

I die cut all the labels with the coordinating Crafty Labels Die and then adhered the tags back to back.

I stamped the greenery and bells from the Crafty Labels Stamp Set on kraft cardstock using Mojito and Apple pigment inks. I die cut the images with the coordinating Crafty Labels Dies and adhered t hem to the tags as shown.

I punched holes in the top of the tags using a Crop-a-dile and threaded through red and white baker's twine to finish each tag!

  1. I'm doing a bunch of these labels too! They will go perfect with the brown bag wrap I use. Just add leftover colored rib and we are set! Thanks for the idea!
