Stampin’ Up! Tags of the Season

Elevate your gifts with a pretty tag created using the Tags for the Season Mix & Match Ephemera Pack, the Joyful Sayings Mix & Match Ephemera Pack and the Joyful Images Mix & Match Ephemera Pack! Mix & Match is in the name which means that you can use whatever elements from the ephemera packs that you’d like to use!

I referenced pages 16 and 17 from the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog to create my tags. In some cases, I copied the samples shown in the catalog and for some of the tags I put my own twist on them.

To make assembly quick and easy I used Stampin’ Seal to adhere the images to the tags and Stampin’ Dimensionals to adhere the sentiments to the tags.

Some of the tags include pretty gold foil accents.

You can layer the tags as you see fit! The tag above includes a banner tag and a round tag which coordinate nicely!

The Mix & Match Ephemera Packs include a large variety of images, sentiments and tag sizes to choose from. Of course, the images and sentiments can be used on cards also!

Once your tags are assembled just add some ribbon, Baker’s Twine or Thread to complete the tag.

The Mix & Match Ephemera Packs can be found in the Quick & Easy section of the September-December 2024 Mini Catalog…and that’s for a very good reason! These eight tags took a matter of minutes to assemble, and I will have some pretty tags to add to my gifts this year!

There is no pdf tutorial for this project as the project is self-explanatory. You will find a list of products used below and links to the products in my online store at the end of the blog post. Enjoy!

My preorder has been placed from the upcoming 2025 January-April Mini Catalog and the Sale-A-Bration catalog and I will be sharing projects with you soon! The items from these catalogs will be available for customer orders in early January! It is hard to believe that January is right around the corner – just six weeks give or take a few days!

And because I have placed my preorder, that means I have also ordered the new catalogs. If you are a customer of mine who has spent $50 with me in the last 12 months, then I will be sending out a catalog to you just as soon as I can get them out the door! If you are not a customer of mine, and don’t have a current demonstrator, head over to my online store and place at least a $50 order with me and I’ll add you to my catalog list!

You’re going to love all of the new goodies in these catalogs! If you can’t wait for their launch in January, consider becoming a demonstrator and join the Stampin’ Up! team! You can preorder new goodies and add them to your Starter Kit then cash in on the 20% discount once you join!
