Metal Edged Tags - Endless Possibilities

Stampin' Up! carries 3 colors and two types of metal edged tags – Copper, Silver, Gold - White and Vellum. These tags come in two sizes per pack and come in square or round. In addition the circle and square punches that Stampin' Up! carries are designed to punch images, photos, etc to layer onto the 2 different sized metal edged tags.

General Tips -

  1. Adhere tags with Glue Dots, brads, eyelets, or by punching holes and securing with ribbon, hemp, twine, cording.

  2. Change color or rim by pressing metal edge tag to embossing pad, dipping in color embossing power and heating.
     

Here are some great ideas

  1. Cut apart and carefully remove paper or vellum insert, then using small Glue Dots create a frame around a verse, photo or other image.
