Kieran's big gift from Santa this year is too much for under the tree. It will be out the in the garage with a bow on it. So, Santa will be leaving this little tag as a note to him about it. I found some fun Christmasy free fonts via Pinterest for the text. I was able to get my Mac to use the color meter selector to print in a red in that's the same RBG values as A Muse's cherry color! Then, I just die cut the words out using this tag die. I die cut a second tag in red and then used a rectangle die to cut a window out of it so that the red would be a frame around the white and text. I ran the red frame through my Xyron and then coated it in glitter. I figure if Santa were to leave a note, there would be sparkles. Sparkles seem so much more magical. The red frame as attached to the text white tag with foam mounting tape.

WOW! Emily that sparkles! I love that you used technology to print in A Muse Studio Cherry! I just found your blog and can't get enough of the inspiration inside.
ReplyDeleteAww thank you!!! I don't have a lot of readers, so it's exciting to have a new one! I've been following yours for a while actually, so it's a great compliment that you like what I made =)
ReplyDeleteAH! Cool! I just "met" another Seattle A Muse fan online like this. She has an Etsy shop not a blog. I complemented her shop and it turns out she follows my blog too. It's a small world and paper crafts have us running in the same circles. Too bad there isn't a ton of A Muse inspiration out there though. I can't wait to see the rest of your Christmas cards AND what you are doing for Valentines!
DeleteOH btw, I think it was pinterest that lead me to your blog.
Thank goodness for the internet right?! I agree that there is too little A Muse stuff out there. I don't want to own up to the amount of time I end up searching for ideas on Pinterest. What's her Etsy shop? I should add it to my favorites!
