Use glitter. Ask questions later. Cardinal rule of crafting.
Ever since I posted this project, glitter has been a staple around here. I blame Martha Stewart. Well, not the actual Martha but you know…her company. Those people pump out glitter varieties like the Duggars pump out children…and I’m not one bit mad at em.
Neon tags are pretty popular right now. At least I think they are. Let’s pretend they are – since that would make today’s project a whole lot more relevant. I love the look of these simple tags – but let’s be honest – everything immediately become a grillion times more wonderful when glitter is involved. So that’s what we’re gonna do. Just add glitter.
The tools and technique behind this project look a lot more complicated that you think. Take a good scroll through the photo tutorial and I’ll show you what I mean.
A note about the “hole puncher” : Being the seasoned crafter that I am, my hole puncher looks a bit like a torture device. In fact, it’s the world’s most awesome hole punching tool ever known to man: The Crop-a-dile. It punches through paper, wood, tin, chipboard…you get the idea. It also sets eyelets, snaps and the like. See, what I mean. Awesome. And so very necessary.
{1-2} Run your tag through the sticker maker
{3} Peel the sticker from it’s paper
{4} Sprinkle the adhesive side of the sticker with glitter
{5} Rub in the glitter with your finger
{6} Shake It Out like Florence & The Machine to get rid of any excess glitter.
{7} Punch .5″ circles from kraft cardstock
{8-9} Run the circle through the smaller Xyron sticker maker (link at the end of this post)
{10} Adhere circle to the top of the glitter tag
{11} Punch a hole through the circle as shown
{12} All done!
At this point, you can use these tags in whatever way your heart desires. Of course, this may just include staring at them for a few hours. When the staring is done, go ahead and dress up a simple gift package with your creation.
This girl is on firrreeeee!!!!! Seriously, Amber, you’re on fire with this latest post. I love the tag and the contrasting white ‘enjoy’ word. Truly inspirational! Hope to make this soon but first a stop to Michael’s for some neon glitter. 😉
Love your blog and all the clever ideas you share !
The glitter tags are so beautiful !
I need that glitter. I’m not even the biggest fan of neon but those glitter colours are fantastic! I also really need to get a crop-a-dile…
I just have the little “X” Xyron but I’ll give this a try. I have a friend that loves glitter as much as you do.
I used to have one on these Xyron machines – way, way back – like 2000 or something like that. Have always resisted the need to replace it (not sure what happened to it) – UNTIL Now – LOL
LOVE your glittery tags, Amber 🙂
GORGEOUS!!!
That is all I have to say!!!
Susan
LOVE!
Super cute!
thanks for the inspiration, I didn’t use neon, but I put the tutorial to work, http://homemadecardsbyerin.blogspot.com/2014/03/happy-birthday-to-you.html
LOVE these tags!!! Since I am stuck in the 80’s I love neon and now I definitely have to dig out my Xyron and figure out what replacement cartridge to get!!!
Love this idea and I’m going to make some tonight! Thank you!
Beautiful tags! Have to get some neon glitter, but until then I am going to try with regular glitter. Thanks!
These are SO GORGEOUS, just like yourself! TFS and by the way, you are hilarious! 🙂
I must thank you for the efforts you have put in writing this blog.
I am hoping to see the same high-grade blog posts from you later on as well.
In fact, your creative writing abilities has inspired me to
get my very own blog now 😉
Thanks in favor of sharing such a pleasant thought, paragraph is good, thats why i have read it completely
HI! I’m wondering what font you use for “Amber” and the “easy” in your post! I love it! Loved the post too!
I’m in love with these! The neon glitter really adds pop to any gift!
