Save The Date Tags


This is the second part for my coffee-stained tags tutorial. 
I made these beautiful Save-The-Date tags for my wedding.

You will need:
Coffee Stained tags
Crop-A-Dile (eyelet and snap punch tool)
2000 Plus Custom Stamp Kit with Handle
Inkpad (I used sepia/brown)
Eyelets (I used brass for a vintage look)
Custom stamp (found mine on Etsy)
Stamp embellishments (optional)
STEP 1: Stamp desired amount of coffee stained tags with your custom stamp.
This will be the cover for your Save-The-Dates
STEP 2: Arrange the message you want displayed on the second tag on the 2000 Plus Custom Stamp Kit. Now, remember to write it backwards so that it reads correctly when you stamp it down. The Kit comes with some handy plastic tweezers to pull the tiny letters with ease, but they are still tricky to handle and easy to drop. Make sure to do this in a clear area where you can see the tiny letters in case you drop them. I almost lost two of them in the process.
STEP 3: Stamp your second tags with the custom stamp you made with your 2000 Stamp Custom Kit. The banner you see on mine was done with a stamp embellishment I had on hand.
STEP 4: Now that you have both pages for your sliding booklet, put them together, insert an eyelet through the eyelet hole in both tags and press the eyelet with the eyelet punch tool to secure together.
Now you have a beautiful, vintage-looking and unique message on your tags!
