Christmas Tags Week 7 | Layered Wreath Tags | Christmas Story

Building layers on a Christmas Tag is so much fun. Add in some extra tags, glitter paper and splatters and ink distressing and a little bit of crochet for a fabulous effect on this special Christmas Tag. This week I've created a door panel look to feature the wreath from the Close To My Heart Christmas Story Cardmaking Stamp Set + Thin Cuts.

Love both of these tags. Your crocheting adds so much to them as well as your other embellishments. Enjoy your creativity and listening to your tutorials❣️

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Eleanor. You are so kind. I wish I'd thought of the crocheting earlier as I use the hook all the time to pull thread through. I was a little excited when it all came together so well for this project.

[@louisebrislane6607]

They turned out very nice & using your crochet skills makes for a very crafty finish.

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Louise. I think it opens up a whole other option for finishing tags and adding a little something extra with crocheting twine for projects.

[@JaymaMalme]

Wow wow wow, I love these! Love how you hung the wreath with the tags and star. And the crochet is such a nice detail. Can’t wait to make some!

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Jayma. I can see all sorts of variations for the crocheting for projects. It was so fun and quick to achieve and made such a difference to the tags.

[@Melsstampingallery]

Omg, these are fabulous! Such a labor of love for some lucky recipient! My grandmother taught me how to crochet and knit many years ago❤ sadly, I haven’t done it in years though, what a great idea to add it to the string!

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Mel. It's wonderful to be able to include crochet onto a tag project - I wish I'd thought of it sooner as I'm so pleased with how it turned out. Love that you were taught by your grandmother, it's fabulous to have all these extra skills and then the memories of being taught.

These are so gorgeous, channelling a vintage look! You and Chelsea are getting me into crocheting and stitching!! :)

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Angie. I don't know why I didn't think of crocheting the twine before. I love the look. I need to get stitching, I'm loving what Chelsey has been sharing with us and I have a huge stash of embroidery thread!

[@helendisher1040]

Wow Janice. Gorgeous tag. I have thoroughly enjoyed your series. Thank you.

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Helen. It's always a fun time of year to create Christmas projects. I'm so glad you are enjoying my Christmas Tag Tuesday. Can't believe that there is only one more to go before Christmas!

[@JulieCarriere_TheScrapZone]

This is gorgeous and the single chain stitch looks amazing, now to find some wood grain pattern paper in my stash 😄

[@doreenwatkins3486]

Love everything about these tags!

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Doreen. They were so fun to make - especially with the addition of crocheting the twine!

[@marshamcmullen7845]

Love the crocheted tops!

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Marsha. Have to say that I'm a little in love with how the crochet looks for the twine.

[@createwithlouise8269]

Love these tags Janice, especially the crocheting.

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Louise. I'm so glad you like the crocheting for the twine. I use a crochet hook all the time to pull thread through the holes of the tags - don't know why I didn't think of chaining the strands earlier!

[@rondaladuke6106]

Wow! Beautiful tags and I love your twine!

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Ronda. I'm so glad you love the twine. I was a little excited when I started crocheting the twine. I'm so happy with how it looks and will definitely do more of this in the future.

[@pamlitzinger1555]

Enjoying your tag instructions!

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Absolutely beautiful.

Thank you so much Cindy. These were fun to put together with all the layers and then the crochet.

[@cindyslater102]

Wow, such beautiful tags!

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Cindy. I loved putting these together and the crocheting was like the "cherry on top" moment!

[@JenniferPerryMyScraproom]

Stunning!!!

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Jennifer. I loved assembling these and the splatter on the glitter paper looks so good in real life.

[@jenniferoja9566]

Wow! Love these so much.

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Jennifer. These were so fun to make and I love the splatter on the glitter paper.

[@AdeleWasden]

Wow beautiful

Thank you so much. I totally enjoyed every little step along the way to creating these tags.

[@donnaphelan3108]

LOVE these! (better late than never!)

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Donna. I loved creating these with the wood papers.

[@leannefoschini5890]

I’m sorry Janice - I saw Andrea posted these & thought they were hers. These are just so nice. Going to make these when I get home from vacation. 😊

[@JaniceGilhooley]

So glad you love these and are going to make some Leanne. All good - I shared this in Andrea's group easy to get confused. ❤️

[@coraliecampbell6946]

Beautiful!

[@katistamps]

Adorable tags!!

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Kati.

[@margaretharm4225]

As always - I loved these tags. You have given us a so many options. Just wondering where you purchase your envelopes for Thin Cuts? I have a few that are too big for our stamp envelopes. And plan to get more! ♥️😉

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Marg. I loved adding the crochet to this one, and those splatters look so good on the Mocha Glitter paper. Here's a link for the storage envelopes I use. I ordered them through Amazon: www.amazon.com.au/gp/product/B088JTQYG8/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_image_o06_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

[@teresaholbrook5395]

Thank you. I love these beautiful tags. Can you tell me what size crochet hood you used?

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Thank you so much Teresa. I used a 3.00mm hook (which is a AU/UK size crochet hook). If you're from USA you can google a conversion for the size if you want to use the same.

[@lynnolsen3299]

Is the classes stuff new?

[@JaniceGilhooley]

Lynn, are you referring to the Creative Design Team Membership Group? The group started in February this year and is a monthly subscription for a private Facebook group - there are two videos a week, pdf handouts of all classes, plus challenges and bonus freebies and more. You can check out the link in the description for the CDT Creatives Membership. It's a different group from the 31 Days of Christmas as it is an ongoing membership and the offerings are always available.
