Jam Tags


Hello, Today I have something a little different to show you. I have made Jam Tags for my homemade jam that I have made. 
I have been very busy the last few days making cherry jam & Raspberry jam. So far I have 18 bottles of cherry jam & 8 bottles of Raspberry jam.


My first tag is for raspberry jam.


Another raspberry jam tag.


A tag for a  bottle of cherry jam.


Another cherry jam tag.


On the back of all the tags I have put the date made.


I have made all the tags with the same card stock, just used different ribbons.

These homemade jams with tags would make great gifts. As my Dad loves homemade jam 2 of these bottles will be going to him.




I will be entering my jam tags into the following challenges:





All the best

Inky Impressions Blog Hop


Hello, welcome to Inky Impressions December Blog Hop

'Celebrate'



I have made a Christmas Hot Air Balloon using 'Maddie the elf' from Inky Impressions.


To make my Balloon I have used a Large foam ball, 3 different fabrics, ribbon, pom-pom ribbon, pearls, flowers & a small container (recycled).


I cut Maddie the Elf out of the scene she comes with so it would fit nicely.
I have used stickles to glitter the image.
On the other side of the image I have stamped a Merry Christmas sentiment.


I have covered the ball in 3 different fabrics. Added ribbon to cover the joins. 
Underneath the ball I have added a rosette I made.


For the basket I used an small container & covered it with some of the stripe fabric. I then added a frill made of a different fabric. 


I also added some pom-pom ribbon, bows, pearls & flowers.


Underneath the basket I have added a rosette I made.


I have also made 6 small matching balls to hang around the balloon. 
I hope you like my Christmas Hot Air Balloon.
