Scor-Pal and JustRite Tag Box~




Back a while ago Sharon asked me if I'd like to create a project for JustRite Stampers using the Scor-Pal.....well, naturally I wanted to! :) As I was deciding what I wanted to create I mused that often times a tag is the perfect addition to a gift in lieu of a card. Having a supply of ready made tags for any occasion would be a great thing to have on hand.

This peek-a-boo presentation box would be a fun gift as a thank you for a special person plus it keeps the tags easy to find at a moment's notice. Change the "thank you" tag to a birthday tag and you've got a great birthday present to give to someone. I can't think of too many who wouldn't appreciate a gift like this!

This tag box is what happens when you merge 3 of the different boxes I've designed in the past: the 4 compartment tag box, the gift card box and the cupcake box.

Instead of housing small tags like the 4 compartment box, this box holds shipping tag size tags that were created from vanilla cardstock. They measure 2-3/8" x 4-1/4" and there are 10 tags in this box. Each tag has a different saying from the JustRite set called

Just a Note Borders & Centers
instead of using the borders that are included in this set, I opted to use the

Decorative Borders 2" Round
using 5 of them 2 times each to make 10 tags.

Both the sentiment and border images are mounted on petite scallop circles before completing the tag.

The top of the box has a circle cutout with a clear card sheet window which provides just a peek of the enclosed tags. The Grand Caliber, that was recently added to my arsenal, makes cutting the large circle for the lid so easy!

The box features a divider insert to keep the tags stacked nicely.

Stay tuned for the full tutorial for this project coming in the near future.

Thanks Sharon, JustRite, and of course Scor-Pal!
