Easy Holiday cards made from tags! Free project sheet & video tutorial.
I look forward to receiving my Paper Pumpkin boxes each month. November’s Wrapped in Cheer kit featured holiday tags and I couldn’t waste an opportunity to make cards from them. I need a lot more Christmas cards than I do tags!
I didn’t change the tag from the original except for the linen thread bow at the top. But I did add it to a Basic Beige textured layer and then onto a Cherry Cobbler card base. Now that is an easy card!
To create the colored leaves inside the card I used the empty piece of paper from the kit where the leaves had been removed. I’m always looking for easy ways to add to the inside of my cards.
There were two different tags in this kit. Aren’t they pretty?
I used the embossing folder called Traditional Wreath 3D folder; it can be seen here. It’s discounted and available while supplies last. *The greeting is from the stamps in the kit.
Below is the video tutorial for this card and more information on Paper Pumpkin.

Check out these Just Kiddin’ Suite cards by our Artist of the Month!
Today I'm sharing multiple cards made by Marla – our February Artist of the Month on my Flowerbug's Team. She chose to feature the Just Kiddin' suite seen here.
ON the card above she scored the back of her card base in half (2 3/4") and added the scene and the greeting strip in front with extra scored ends that create a curved element. That pretty purple glimmer paper is from our Online Exclusives. So cool!
These projects feature the Softly Sophisticated designer paper from our recent Sale-a-Bration promotion. Sadly SAB is over so it's not available anymore. You can easily substitute your favorite designer paper instead.
Please watch the video tutorial below to see how to make this box. I used the crinkled Pool Party ribbon from SAB to close it and the Heartfelt Hexagon stamp & punch bundle on these projects.
I decided to attach the ribbon on this box instead of leaving it loose. I used Tear & Tape and adhered it to the back, upper flap and half of the front. I tied the tag to the ribbon with twine so it's easy to tie together again.
Next I'll share the individual cards with the measurements. Each one is a special but easy fun fold layout. I used just one stamp set on these cards – the Heartfelt Hexagon set. The coordinating Hexagon punch is unavailable right now; it's out of stock but will be back in April.
Note the decorated envelopes to match! Doing this makes your projects extra special and uses up your designer paper stash too.
This card is a new take on a book-binding card fold. It has just one extra layer of card stock to make it a new fold.
Measurements: Calypso Coral card 11" X 4 1/4" score at 2 1/8", 4 1/4" & 5 1/2". 2nd piece is 3 1/4" X 4", White inside 2" X 4". DSP – large panel is 3" X 4", 1" X 4" & 2" X 4"
This card shows off both sides of your designer paper since the DSP is actually the front of your card base.
Measurements: Pool Party is 5 1/4" X 5 1/2" score at 4 1/4". DSP – 1 piece at 3/4" X 5 1/2", 1 piece at 4" X 5 1/2". Wild Wheat strip 4" X 1"
