AAA Birthday game #29 - Not a card

 

Hey everyone! Today we're kicking off the September challenge at AAA Birthday and this months theme is - Not a card!

I may have gone a bit overboard here, but I have had these dies for a loooong time and never used them. What's up with that, lol! So now was the time. I'm delighted to say most of the dies and stamps are from Danish brands.

Dies and stamps used:

Simple and Basic SBD008 wine bottle tag

Simple and Basic SBD028 wine bottle tag add-on

Simple and Basic SBD012 double tag

Simple and Basic SBD055 Pocket tag builder

Simple and Basic SBD055 Pocket tag builder add-on

Simple and Basic SBD015 Tillykke

Simple and Basic SBD005 Pierced Fishtail tags

My favorite things Good time to wine

My favorite things Party like a pirate

The first set are wine bottle tags, and to one of them I used the pocket tag builder to add a pocket. It's meant to fit a gift card but you can also add a tiny note or similar.

Papers are from Memory Box Garden Folly and 13 Arts/Piatek Aqua Flora

Had to show them on bottles, right?!

These are double tags, so you actually have a little bit of writing room on them. I added a pocket (without the top part) to one of them and a cute pirate to the other.

Papers are from Memory Box Cottage Meadow and Aldi. Danish sentiment means "On your day".

If you think you've seen this before, you're right! I made it to go with a costum made card for a 70th birthday not so long ago. But at the same time it was made alongside the other tags, so I'm showing it here again. Very simple Congrats die added glossy accents.

The paper is from Aldi.

The last one is another pocket tag, fit for any age and sex. Sentiment means "Heartfelt congrats".

The paper is from Joy! Crafts.

Here you can see the inside of the pocket. As you can see I made a mistake in adding the inside add-on before adding the ribbon and attaching the top pocket. But hey, we all make mistakes, right.

So these were my first real tags. I don't usually use a lot of patterned paper, but I liked making these. Do you make a lot of tags? Let me know in the comments.

Thanks for stopping by! Don't forget to hop on over to the AAA Birthday blog and check out the makes of the design team and our guest designer. I can't wait to see what you create!
