Hi! Here are some mitten tags I made from Spellbinders mitten dies. One side has the red felt and the other some PTI cardstock so we could write the names on. I used Liquid Stitch to glue the mittens together and the snowflake.
The red felt I just bought at Ben Franklin. It cut pretty well. The snowflake is the medium sized one from My Favorite Things Die-namics dies. I used PTI felt for the snowflakes. I tried using less expensive felt but it just wouldn't cut cleanly even when I tried to fatten up the layering recipe on the Big Shot. Even with the PTI felt I used a sheet of cardstock to cut the snowflake out nicely. I used some ribbon for the trim and red baker's twine. I colored some clear bling with my red copic pen for the center of the snowflake.
On the reverse side of the mitten, I used PTI's Tiny Treats Xmas set (I use this set a lot!). I thought the mittens matched so nicely. I added some stickles. That's the extent of my glitter use--it's not as messy. The year is stamped with PTI's Simple Alphabet.
Tied the mittens onto some teachers' gifts that I wrapped up last night. And after unwrapping the gifts, these tags can also be used as ornaments.
Will be entering these in a couple of challenges too. ACLP's Tag It! challenge and Lollipop Crafts Christmas Tags challenge.
Can't believe it's almost Christmas! Still have a lot to do. Thanks for reading!
