New At SU! November Blog Hop - Homemade Treats

Welcome to the New At SU! November Blog Hop!

Our theme for this month is Simply Christmas. My Take on this was to make some simple gift tags. I originally started with the sheet of tag fronts provided in the Christmas Tags & More 6"x6' paper pack. I had seen the tags created by Amanda Mertz on YouTube and had decided to case hers. I did use the tag she created but wound up using the Christmas Tags & More DSP for the mats on the tags I made for this hop. My grandson and I, really most of our families, made a lot of peach jam this summer. 

We wanted to give some as Christmas gifts (Some jars were traded for fresh eggs, yum). So the tags I have made will be tied around the jam jars.

The Handmade Treats Bundle (stamp set & dies) are perfect for the Christmas season baking that a lot of us do. I have added the measurements for the tags below my photos. 

And Stampin' Up thoughtfully included extra dies for the gingerbread man, Santa hat & candy cane images. Very helpful when you are mass producing. I cut tags from 2 sheets of cardstock, 1 Real Red & 1 Garden Green. That gave me 8 (2 1/2" x 4") of each color. I measured, on the top of the tag, 1/2" in from the corner, dotted this with a pencil, and did this on both sides of the tag top. Then measured down, on both sides, 1/2" and dotted this with a pencil too. Connected the dots with a ruler and pencil then cut away the corners. I used the Hole Punch Assortment Punches for the holes in my tags. The tag fronts are 2 1/8" x 3 1/8" and the mats are 2 1/4" x 3 1/4" The rest of these "ingredients" can be found below in the Product List.

I hope you have enjoyed my take on this month's Simply Christmas. Now it's time for your next stop along our blog hop.
