Holly Jolly Day at My Little Shoebox!

It's Day 9 of the My Little Shoebox Holly Jolly Days, and it's my turn to share!

If you are not familiar with the Holly Jolly Days, let me fill you in! My Little Shoebox has a wonderful new winter called Holly Jolly. It's cute and colorful!

I chose to make gift tags for my Holly Jolly project, let me share those with you:


Here's some close-ups of the tags...

 One this one I used the cardstock stickers for the snowman and the Happy Holiday saying and the mini alpha's that say to and from.

 The base for this one is a diecut tag, decorated with a diecut stripe, cardstock stickers and lots of stickles!

 This on is my favorite! I used a chipboard tag as my base, the cardstock snowman is popped off the page with a pop-dot and topped off with a cute green ribbon. This tag already has a home placed on a Christmas package!



 This one was really easy, I just cut piece of patter paper that had the details already printed on it, folded in half and finished off the inside (see below), it's already to be added at package!


These two below were made using the already made die-cut tag and just embellished them!



Here's another easy one, that was just cut from the pattern paper, folded in half and embellished

 Here's inside!



and the back...


and one last one, use a diecut tag and embellished with a snowman cardstock sticker.



I wanted to keep these tags and easy to make. I know how crazy it gets around the holidays, but yet we feel the need to make handmade gifts. All you need it the Holly Jolly collection, stickles, pop-dots and ribbon and you are all set.

While I was making these, 2 of my kids joined in and made some really creative cards for friends and teachers.
