Red face Coloring on tags? PLEASE READ

I have just been "asked" to make 75 graduation annoucements for my niece. She likes the idea of the tag templates. I have a couple of tag templates but they are not big enough. Is it possible to buy them pre-cut in white (the size I need) and then use the brayer to color them with the specific ink color I will be using?
Thank you guys so much for any input you may have

do you have a local scrapbooking store? Most of them have free usage of die cutting machines if you buy their paper.... I'd honestly go buy up some paper from them (bazill has great colors) and use their machine to get the right size tag. It would be MUCH faster for a bulk item like that!

Good luck!

The problem with that is we have already purchased the paper so I guess I am kinda in a jam with that one. Thanks mamak for the quick reply.

www.creativecutsandmore.com sells die cut tags (I think the large one is 2 1/2" x 5" or so) with tag envelopes using SU papers. What size had you planned on? I think most large tag punches are in the size range of around 1 1/2" x 3". Coluzzle tag templates measure 2 1/2" x 3 3/4.

Not sure if any this helps. Good luck.

Some of the scrapbooking stores charge small fees to use the die cut machines. The store I used to go to charged 50 cents an hour. It can't hurt to ask since you already have the paper.

I'll I have to look into a few more stores...the ones I generally go to you need to buy their paper! Thanks for the heads up!

Thanks girls for all of your input....I will have to try to contact some stores around here to see what they have to say. I have never heard of a diecut machine....is it something that will have a tag shape?:confused:

Yes, there are many vendors of die cut machines: Sixxix, Accu-cut/Zip-E, Ellison, Wizard. They make 100's of little "dies" in all kinds of shapes and alphabetstyles. You choose a die, place your paper pull down on the handle. This "presses" the die on the paper and cuts it. HTH

Shannon, try Craft Warehouse. They will charge you a small fee if you use your own paper, but I don't think it will break the bank. It may even be an hourly fee.

Hi, Paper Pizazz or Hot off the Press has a tag template for about $5 that has four styles of tags in various sizes that could help you with your delima. Look for it at your local scrapbook store.
