Now for the crafty fun!
This year, we are going to feature Christmas tags so for SBC this is the 12 Days of Tags. Each day, we will showcase a tag or more using fun and easy techniques that we promise look good on any Christmas Package.

Today we are making a tag with: a decorative top

I don't know about you but for me, it was hard to come up with something cute for the top of the tag other than just a straight edge. I have two go-to techniques to show you.

First is using a corner punch with a little trimming, just like below.



The second is using a rounded corner punch or even the envelope punch board like this one.  I even made the cute bow using the board.

(stay tune for an upcoming bow tutorial)

I hope you like our kick off project! I can't wait to show you tomorrow's tags.

Your next blog is Carla @ Racin' Crafts

Building Block Graduation Card

Hello, everyone! Melissa here on to share a "building block" style card with you. I made this one graduation themed, since there are a ton of graduations going on right now. Hope you enjoy this card, and are inspired to try it out yourself. Here is the tutorial I followed from Split Coast Stampers. To make it easier, I will give you all the measurements, here. It looks harder than it is, I promise. Start with a piece of cardstock in your desired color that is 5.5 x 10.5. Put the 10.5 inch side along the top of your score board or paper trimmer, and score at 3.5 inches and 7 inches. Fold the first score line in a mountain fold, and the second in a valley fold. You should end up with a "z" fold card. The next part can get a bit tricky, so make sure you watch the video to fully understand what I am about to explain. On the back side of the "valley" fold, take a ruler and pencil and mark these measurements: 3/8 1 3/8 1 5/8 2 5/8 2 7/8 3 7/8 ...
