Photoplay – Nutcracker Tags

Welcome to Day 6 of my Nutcracker series using a variety of stamps and die sets to make some nutcracker themed cards. My card today uses a die set by PhotoPlay – Nutcrackers Layered and Karen Burniston’s Topper Tags die set.

Watch the process video below to learn how this card was made.

Cardbase: Cut tags that will allow for a 4-inch figure using Karen Burniston’s Topper Tags die set. cut the decorative hole reinforcers in a contrasting color and thread a piece of baker’s twine through the hole and tie off.

Nutcrackers: Using PhotoPlay’s Nutcrackers Layered die set, create your nutcrackers as shown on packaging or create your own uniforms and hair styles.
