5 Ways to Use the Tag Topper Punches

Today, I made another appearance on WCIA's ciLiving Creative Corner segment. I shared some projects showing different ways to use the new Tag Topper Punches from Stampin' Up!. I created all of these Valentine's Day themed projects using the Angled Tag Topper Punch, Scalloped Tag Topper Punch, and Fresh Prints Designer Paper Stack from the new Stampin' Up! Occasions Catalog.

Missed my Creative Corner segment? Watch it now:

The Tag Topper Punches are so easy to use! Simply cut a piece of cardstock or paper to 2" in width, slide it in the punch, and push down to create a decorative edge! It even punches the hole perfectly in the center of the top of the tag! You can make the tags any length you want!

I am sure there are many more, but here are the ways that I used the Tag Topper Punches for this set of projects. Click here for a printable version (.pdf) of this guide.

5 Ways to Use the Tag Topper Punches:

1. Create a traditional tag for a card, scrapbook page, or gift. See samples.
2. Punch both ends of the cardstock for a unique tag. See sample.
3. Make a bookmark. 
4. Create a box. Punch both ends and add small pieces of cardstock to the sides.Click here for Video Tutorial.
5. String multiple tags together to make a banner. Click here for details.

I think these exclusive punches are must-haves for your paper-crafting collection! Visit my Online Stampin' Store to buy them now.

Tag Topper Punch Love Banner

I'm getting ready for another Creative Corner segment on WCIA's ciLiving. (Central Illinois fans, tune in this afternoon on Thursday, January 30th to see me!) I have created a set of projects for Valentine's Day using the new Tag Topper Punches from the Stampin' Up! Occasions Catalog. I think these are my favorite new thing! You can create tags in many different lengths for cards, scrapbook pages, gift packaging, and home decor. Here's a sneak peek of one of the projects that I'll be sharing on ciLiving.

I used the Angled Tag Topper Punch to create this banner. It's so easy! I just trimmed each piece of cardstock to 2" wide and then punched the topper. It cuts the corners perfectly and even punches the hole right in the center! Here are some close-ups of the tags:

Celebrate Tag Topper Punch Banner

Here's another make and take from Spring Into Stamping. We used the Angled Tag Topper Punch to make a birthday banner. Really, you could use this banner for many occasions since it says "Celebrate". I used the Typeset Alphabet dies with the big shot to cut the letters.

Here are some close-ups so you can see the detail on each banner piece. I really kept it clean and simple and didn't embellish it too much.

Big Wish Birthday Tag Card

I had a great time stamping with Beth and Kelly and their guests Sunday afternoon. I focused on kits and showed them how easy it can be to bring paper crafting into a busy life without taking up lots of space. I think almost everyone ordered a kit or one kind or another. The Hip Hip Hooray and Everyday Occasions Kits were the most popular. You can find them in my Online Store here.

In addition to sharing some kit projects, I also demonstrated a couple projects, including this card using the Angled Tag Topper Punch and Big Wish stamp set.
