Today, Melissa is sharing on her blog some great Christmas tag inspiration plus tips and tricks for stamping the super trendy buffalo plaid pattern for your projects:
“Buffalo Plaid is on trend for the holidays this year! This Christmas crafting season, we can create our own plaid using supplies from Papertrey Ink. I’ve selected the Background Basics: Super Gingham stamp set, Pure Poppy cardstock, and my clean and crisp True Black ink to create tags that are perfectly plaid for the holidays. The best thing about them? They come together quickly but are sure to create a lasting impression as you dress up your Christmas packages this year!”
