This cross stitch parcel was another piece of holiday stitching and used snippets of perforated paper and threads - perfect for making into a gift tag with more card and paper snippets.

To make this tag I used:
Creative Expressions 'Pierced Tags' die
Catkin & Lillie 'Mini Presents' cross stitch chart
DMC red, green and black threads
Snippets of white card, Wild Rose Studio 'Painted Poinsettia' paper and perforated paper

I attached the paper to the white card and die cut the middle size tag before embossing around the edge. After stitching the cross stitch present I used a sharp pair of scissors to trim around the stitching and used strong tape to attach the present to the tag. To finish, I used more oddments of the same red and green threads to attach to the top of the tag.
I am entering the following challenges:
Allsorts - Anything Goes
As You Like It Challenge - Favourite Non-card Crafting Project (I always use recycled brown paper to wrap presents so like to make colourful tags for them - this one also has a cross stitch element which is my other favourite craft)
Daisy Chain Challenge - Christmas in July
Snippets Playground - Challenge 510
Tag-Along (and ATCs) - Anything Goes
