Facebook Live Replay – Tuesday 25th August 2020 – Tag Buffet and Christmas Countdown. I had such a great time during my Facebook Live crafting session on Tuesday morning. I was looking at a couple of the kits in the August- December Mini catalogue.
The first kit I looked at was the Christmas Countdown. I loved this Advert Calendar last year, so was thrilled to see it back. Another Demonstrator came up with the genius idea to cut up the scene paper from Trimming the Town and add the pieces to the back of the drawers (which look exactly like the front!). Doesn’t it look amazing? It means you can pull out your Advent calendar for years and alternate the pictures.
Tag Buffet Project Kit
The next kit we looked at was the Tag Buffet Project Kit. This is not the same as an all inclusive kit (such as the Paper Pumpkin Box of Sunshine – details below). Project Kits include the pieces and instructions you need, but not the stamps, ink or adhesives.
For the Tag Buffet Project Kit you need just 3 ink pads, Garden Green, Real Red and Shaded Spruce.
The instructions suggest that you need 12″ of twine for each tag, I found 8″ was sufficient. I would suggest tying the two ends together as soon as you make the tags to avoid them unraveling.
The designs for the tags are a perfect balance between traditional and modern. I think the combination of foiling and laser cutting gives the tags a really opulent feel.
I wasn’t sure about the mix of Garden Green and Shaded Spruce, but it does work.
I mentioned during my Facebook Live that you can keep the negative space to use as stencils for additional projects.
I made just 3 of the designs during our time together, but there are others and a total of 30 tags to make, assuming you simply follow the instructions! But enough from me, time to grab a drink and settle down to watch, well, me!
Facebook Live Replay Time!

All you need to do is add Item #149653 to your Starter Kit and then decide what to spend the other £18 on. This means that you would not only get the new die cut machine NOW, but you would also save £31, no, make that £35.95 (I forgot that the Starter Kit includes the P&P!).
