Festive Tags

Hi there! Today I’m sharing some easy die cut holiday tags using several dies from Simon Says Stamp.

SSS-Luggage Tags, Nordic Ornament, Side Perched Bird, Frosty Nordic Tree, Beautiful Cardinal

To make each of the tags I used the Luggage Tags & Holes and Reinforcers die set with some Simple Stories pattern paper. Starting from left to right, I used the Nordic Ornament, Side Perched Bird and Frosty Nordic Tree. I also added some greenery below the bird using the Ho Ho Holiday Greens dies.

Instead of trying to list every color, I linked a couple of multi packs below. If you’re anything like me, you have a ton of scraps that would be perfect for projects like these!
