Happy Birthday Gift Tag with Katelyn Grosart

Hey Southern Ridge Trading Company fans, Katelyn here. I'm thrilled to be back on the blog today sharing my Happy Birthday Gift Tag perfect to add to a gift bag or wrapped gift. To create my tag, I've used a variety of our popular fall and everyday chipboard pieces. You'll want to read below as I share with you how to recreate my Happy Birthday Gift Tag at home.


To start, you'll need one Chipboard Tag. Trace the chipboard tag around a fall piece of patterned paper. Cut the paper tag out. Punch the hole at the top of the paper tag. Ink the edges of the paper tag using Vintage Photo Distress Ink and a blending tool with foam.


Next, you'll need five Itty Bitty Maple Leaves.


From the Fall Leaves, you'll need to choose three of the leaves. Apply Emboss It Ink to two of the leaves and sprinkle Baked Texture - Taos Sunset Embossing Powder over each leaf. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Apply Emboss It Ink to the other leaves and sprinkle Baked Texture - Chunky Rust Embossing Powder over the leaf. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. 


Choose two Tribal Feathers from the Tribal Feather Mix package. Apply Emboss It Ink to one of the leaves and sprinkle Baked Texture - Chunky Rust Embossing Powder over the feather. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. Apply Emboss It Ink to the other feather and sprinkle Forest Foliage Embossing Powder over the feather. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool. 


From the Birthday Greetings sentiments, cut out one of the Happy Birthdays. Apply Emboss It Ink to the Happy Birthday sentiment and sprinkle Burnt Copper Embossing Powder over the sentiment. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.  


You'll need the small Abstract Circle Frame from the Abstract Circle Frames. Apply Emboss It Ink to the frame and sprinkle Weathered Wood Embossing Powder over the frame. Tap off the excess powder and emboss with a heat tool.  


The last chipboard piece you'll need is the damask ornament.


Adhere the paper tag to the chipboard tag.


Adhere the abstract circle frame to the damask ornament. Apply foam squares to the left hand side of the damask ornament and adhere to the middle right hand side of the tag.


Adhere one of the Taos Sunset leaves in the top left side of the frame. Adhere the two feathers to the middle of the frame. Adhere the remaining embossed leaves to the bottom right side of the frame.


Adhere the Happy Birthday sentiment to the middle of the circle frame. Adhere the five itty bitty maple leaves around the frame as desired. 


To finish the tag, tie a piece of twine to the top of the tag.


Here are a few closeup photos of the tag.




Here is the finished Happy Birthday Gift Tag.
