The June Challenge at Stamping Sensations begins today, the optional theme for this month is
Our Furry Friends, chosen by Anesha ,or you can take part using the Anything Goes option.
There are 2 lovely prizes of Penny Black stamps from Buddly Crafts to be won.
It was granddaughter Emily's 11th birthday last month, as part of her gift I decided to give her money as she likes to choose her own clothes now. I made this gift tag and holder to put it in.
I made the holder first- a simple kraft card, folded down the corner , clipped the edges into curves and decorated with the tartan patterned DP. I added some faux stitching and a chipboard flower, glued the open side and bottom edge
The dog stamp is from Aall & Create, I stamped him to sit on the strips of DP and coloured him with pencils. I thought it looked a bit bare so added the candles- part of the same same stamp set-how lucky that there were 11! I made a tag from kraft to fit inside the holder, adding a pocket cut from the dp.
As always there is plenty of inspiration from the rest of the team over at Stamping Sensations, so please do head on over to check it out and for full details of how to play along with our challenges.
Thanks for visiting
Happy Sunday

What a fabulous design for this gift tag holder. ~Ginny x
Really like the design of your gift tag holder Chris, the fold back flap with the DP ties the whole design together so nicely. Cut Birthday doggie as well.
I'm thinking a perfect entry for our new Tag-ALong (and ATC's) challenge!

This gift tag holder is such a charming and creative way to present a birthday gift! The fold-back corner adds a lovely touch, and the red tartan pairs beautifully with the kraft card. The little dog stamp is absolutely adorable, and I love how you've incorporated the candles—such a fun detail, especially with the perfect number for Emily’s age. A truly thoughtful and delightful handmade creation!
What a beautiful creation you made with this funny dog.
Thank you for joining the challenge at Kleuren met Potloden.
Hugs, Astrid.
