Stampin' Up! Two Tag Treats & Bookmark

One of the things I really enjoy making is little treat holders and 3D items.  So, I thought I'd play with my Two Tags die with the Big Shot and start creating!  Now, this die is perfect for creating tags (as it was designed to do), but it's even more fun when you use the die to create something a little different.

What do you think?


Supplies:
Stamps: Ciao, Baby (item on left above), Collage Curious (item on right)
Paper:  Sunshine and Sprinkles Designer Series Paper, Melon Mambo card stock
Ink:  Melon Mambo, Lucky Limeade






I love how bright and cheery these little treat holders are!  For the treat holder, I cut two tags from the die and scored each 1/2" from the ends.  I adhered the ends together using Sticky Strip and then embellished!  I used the 1 1/4" circle punch on the top so the treat can 'peek' through.

I even created a cute little magnetic bookmark, also using the Two Tags die.  With the bookmark, I took a strip of card stock (a piece that was just a little wider than the tag), folded it in half and then placed it on the die so the fold was kept intact.  Then I ran it through the Big Shot.  Once I had the base of the bookmark, I just embellished it.  There's no right or wrong way to decorate!







Supplies for Bookmark:
Paper:  Daffodil Delight card stock, Melon Mambo card stock, Floral District Designer Series Paper
Ink:  Black Staz On, Daffodil Delight marker
Accessories:  Two Tags Bigz Die, Big Shot Die Cutting Machine, Scallop Circle punch, 1 1/4" circle punch, 1 3/8" circle punch

Happy Stamping!
