Introducing Circle Tags


This is one set is Circle Tags, very original I know, and as usual it is made and distribute by Personal Impressions to shops all around the country. Like the Square Tags that I showed a couple of days ago it can be used with the original stamp set, Mixed Sentiments. Also, it incorporates seven more messages that complete the Mixed Sentiments set, as they are the same sort of size as the ones featured in that set.

The flowers are the same design as the ones that appears on the Square Tags, however this ones are singles so you can space them as you wish.

This set was part of the QVC set that was on air on the last Craft Day - the one that had Tim Holtz TSV on, 23rd of February - so some of you may have got it already. I am not sure if or when are they going to be on air again, so I would suggest if you like them and you see them in a shop get hold of them.

PUNCHES, PUNCHES, PUNCHES

Although, as always, there are plenty of punches and dies that will work very nicely with this set, there are some that work best, so which ones fit better? I decided to simplify things when I was designing them and make them fit the best the same punches as the ones that fit All Year Round.

Here they are the best punches:

1 3/8" Circle Punch EkSuccess - works great with All Year Round and Circle Tags. At the minute the best way to get it is through Crafts U Love. Also, you can get it through Stampin Up demonstrators. If you don't know anyone let me know.

1 1/2" Scalloped Woodware Punch - works great with All Year Round and Circle Tags stamps as well as with the InCircles foiled die cut messages from Craftwork Cards.Because it is a rather new product, only a few weeks in this country, many shops haven't got it yet. But it is coming. As soon as a friendly shop stocks it I will let you all know.

But, and this is an important but, you can use other sized circle punches as a follow up tutorial later on today is going to show you.
