Hello Crafty Friends and
Welcome to Top Dog Dies "Christmas Blog Hop"!
You should have arrived from Angela Bode's blog, if not please be sure to start at Michelle Neddo's blog. You don't want to miss out on any of the beautiful inspiration!
--------------------
I am so excited to share my project with you today!
I had an absolute fun time creating this project with a bunch of my lovely Top Dog Dies!
I decided to begin with the my Tag Album Die! As it was my goal to create a Christmas album! I used it to cut a few tags from chipboard. It cut perfectly!
Here's the finished look:
I just love how it turned out!!
Aside from using the Tag Album Die I used the Madison Border Die for the border behind the Merry Christmas sentiment from Inspired By Stamping.
I also then used the Snowflake Trio Die Set to create this poinsettia!
Then I added some flourishes behind it using the Leafy Flourishes Die Set!
The next page features a holiday sentiment, along with some snowflakes from the Snowflake Trio Die Set.
I also used the Nameplates Die on this page! I cut the die once to create the vary back "border" behind the red paper and then again for behind the sentiment. As well as cutting one more time, but then cutting it down to just fit the sentiment on.
As I was creating this I thought it would be fun to create this as an album card/gift card holder!
So for the last page I altered the Treat Bag Die! I cut out the entire bag, but then cut the handles off along with half of the bag. I only used the sides and one front of the bag and glued and folded it up to hold a gift card!! It was the perfect size!! So exciting!!
The gift card pulls out perfectly!
What a fun idea!

Love your tag book - I meant to make tags for presents this year to give to my Family at Thanksgiving but didn't get it done and this tag set would be perfect for when I do them for next year :)

Love to see different tags. And love all the dies you used. Very creative.
All projects are really lovely, nice color choices. You are so clever to make a poinsettia out of snowflakes!
That tag book is spectacular! What a great idea! A Fleet Farm gift card on its own is a perfect gift but presented in this AMAZING tag book it gets even better!
