8 Weeks Until Christmas!

Not sure what to bring when you go to a Holiday party? A safe bet is to always bring wine. Make your own wine tags and your gift will be extra special. These tags are all made on the same base size: 8 1/2" x 2 3/4" piece of card stock, scored at 3". I used my 1 3/8" circle punch to punch a circle for the bottle head.

I made these three tags with big help from my Big Shot.

This tag uses the awesome Woodland Textured Impressions folder, the "merry" from Christmas Greetings Thinlits and gold glimmer paper, "& Bright" from the Holly Jolly Greetings stamp set. A few sequins from the Metallics Sequin Assortment, Gold Metallic Thread and washi tape (I didn't have this year's Winter Wonderland Designer Washi tape so I used some from last year).

This tag was embossed with the Softly Falling Textured Impressions Embossing Folder (I always think of champagne bubbles when I use it), the Wonderous Wreath stamp set and Framelits (with an accent of gold embossing powder) and "cheers" from the Greetings Thinlits in the new red foil sheets. I decided to use the bow from the Mini Treat Bag Thinlits instead of the bow that came with the wreath set because the scale matched cheers very nicely.

Don't forget to bring wine to Thanksgiving! The base is embossed with the Woodgrain Textured Impressions Folder, the leaves cut with the Leaflets Framelits and the acorn was scissor cut (because I don't have that framelit) and stamped with the Cheer All Year stamp set. "thanks" is from the same Greetings Thinlits as the above "cheers" in gold foil sheets and finished off with the gold Metallic Baker's Twine.

Thanks to Pinterest for the inspiration of these tags. Remember, you don't always have to come up with the idea yourself!
