Oversized Birthday Tag


My 5-year-old niece loves pigs (and was born in the year of the pig), so I had to incorporate one on her birthday tag.  Since this was going on a large plain kraft gift bag, I made my tag large too, cutting it at 7" from the Cricut Sweet Treats cartridge.


This adorable pig is cut from the Cricut Craft Room Barnyard Babies cartridge at 3 1/2".  Again, I'm not actually using Cricut Craft Room; all of the exclusive cartridges can be used on your Gypsy as well.  The present is cut at 2" from the Sweet Treats cartridge, and the party hat is also cut at 2", from Doodlecharms.


For my little pennant, I die cut the shape and used a sentiment from My Creative Time's Teeny Tag Greetings.  Hopefully my niece will like her little pig tag!

  3. Very cute, I'm sure you're niece will love the tag. I love how you matched the top of the tag with the paper on the present and the shadow for the tiny tag -- and, that special Katie touch -- using the pig's tail to "hold" the tiny tag. You always put so much thought and design into all of your projects. TFS!
