It’s Day Two of 24 Tags of Christmas week!! This time we’ll be playing with Zig markers – and a way to make a thicker shaker card, for those larger blings we might want to use!
I decided to stamp and diecut out of Ranger’s Distress Watercolor Cardstock – for one, it’s extra-white, and for two, I have a stash taking up a spot I want to use to store something else. LOL. Crafters problems, right? And the die set has beautiful pierced details…so pretty!
Video
Watch the video below or click HERE to see it in HD on YouTube.
I stamped the tissue paper to wrap the box using some other inks – try out what you have in your stash, it seems that both pigment and dye inks work, both on the slicker and duller side of tissue paper. (If yours has two sides. I bought the cheap stuff at the drugstore to try out!)
Giveaway
Tradition is to give away the 24 tags…I’ll pick 24 winners from blog posts and YT comments, so leave some love and maybe you’ll win! Woohoo!

So cute and adorable.
Very cute! Love that dog stamp and just ordered it. Wrapping paper idea is fabulous.
Cute idea for a tag, you almost have me convinced on those Zig markers too!!!
Love the cute dog with his scarf! So cute.
How adorable Sandy! Love it!
Very cute, I haven’t worked up the courage to try shaker cards or tags yet, you make it look so easy.
These tags are just adorable…I want that stamp so badly… 🙂
Thanks for the tip of using two layers of foam tape for a thicker card. The dog is precious!
I was leaning towards bah hum bug this year with christmas stuff coming out before Halloween but your
shaker Dog Tag has started to put me in the holiday spirit! Thanks for your inspiration!
I always love your Christmas tag series. I need to go back and find your day 1! I love this “dog tag!”
As always, loved the tag BUT I think your dog is much cuter!! I’m getting braver and coloring in my backgrounds now. Thank you!
This is so cute!
Oh my gosh I love the snowflakes and the puppy. I have 3 dogs gives me lots of ideas.
Very cute shaker tag! I starting to get an itch to get those zig markers! LOL
Oh wow! Absolutely cute!!!
You’re all about “inspiration” I think! Just when I think “I just can’t do it as good as you”, you post something and that thought changes to “I know I can, I know I can”. Reminds me of the childhood stories of the Little Tug Boat and the Little Engine that “could”. LOL. Thanks so much!!
Once again a wonderful tag. I love all things dog but he is so cute. Thanks for showing the tissue paper too great idea to stamp it.
Adorable doggie tag and I love the stamped package as well!
Well done as always Sandy…..I just love watching you color you do it so well….tfs

Love that dog & his cozy scarf!
Fun wrapping to go with such a great tag!
Having a dog on the wrapping paper makes sense when paired with the cute tag – opens up a lot of stamps for Christmas use!
So cute. Now I want this stamp set.
Gave me some good ideas for my Christmas tags. The dog is so cute. I have really enjoyed watching the videos.
I haven’t used Zig markers but they are on my Christmas list. The shaker tags are adorable and the matching gift wrap is such a creative idea! Love that you can color the dogs to make them your own!
I love all the neat animal stamps and how you use them for Christmas tags! Enjoy all your videos!!!
