It’s the second week of Christmas in July 2021 and today features Poinsettia Gift Tags. Last holiday season, I saw Poinsettia Gift tags created by other demonstrators and made a mental note to use the set for gift tags in the future. So this year, I am making Poinsettia gift tags for some of my holiday packages. The Poinsettia Dies are perfect for creating the poinsettia embellishment for the tags. The first tag is a poinsettia gift tag design using non-traditional Christmas colors. The 2021-2023 In Colors are some of my favorite colors and so I selected Polished Pink for the poinsettia. It will be perfect to for use this Christmas on one of my granddaughter’s gifts. In addition, I’m sharing another poinsettia gift tag using stamped poinsettia layers which are cut with the coordinating dies. The color scheme is more subtle (crumb cake on very vanilla cardstock).

Today, I am excited to kick-off my Christmas in July event by highlighting elements from the Tidings of Christmas product suite. Though we are still in the heat of summer, it’s not to early to start thinking about Christmas. I will be posting holiday themed projects each Wednesday and Friday in July. And if you enjoy Hallmark Channel holiday movies, the channel starts their Christmas in July movies this upcoming weekend. I can’t wait!!! Yes, the movies are predictable but fun to watch. What better way to spend a hot, muggy day than to stay indoors, get cozy and watch Christmas-winter themed movies?! Now to stop digressing and get back to the card featured today. (LOL)
For this first Christmas in July project, the Tidings and Trimmings Bundle and the Tidings of Christmas Designer Series Paper blend to create a traditional Christmas card. For the card layout, I opted to use one of my favorite layouts with angled layers of designer series paper. The Tidings of Christmas product suite is from the 2021-2022 Stampin’ Up! Annual Catalog (pages 88-89). You’ll find a list of card materials and the video directions below.
