This is the most fabulous technique! unfortunately my Label maker has bit the dust…well after 30 years of having it it doesn’t owe me anything…but I miss it all the same.
Love the embossing on this project and the label maker is a new thing.
What a great idea. I’m loving that Ho Ho Ho done with the label maker. Very cute way to add that little bit of interest and texture to a project
What a great idea to use a label maker! The layout and jar both look beautiful! I love them both.
Beautiful layout and jar. Another wonderful technique. Thanks so much for sharing!
Love the idea of us a label maker, I will have to give this a try. I just love the layout and the jar is gorgeous!!! Beautiful!!!! TFS!!!!
Wow I like this idea and wish I had one of the old label makers. I have a newer one that prints out.

Love the heart! What a fantastic idea!
Oh what I wouldn’t give to see this under my Christmas tree – LOVE the lable maker and the great ideas!
Too cute! Love this project! I NEED a label maker, they’re so fun!
I need to get my hands on a label maker because this technique is just TOO cool! Thanks once again for the awesome ideas.
What a precious photo! Great lo and altered jar!
I’ve always wanted a label maker. I told my husband that and I got a new fancy one and not this kind. I love the look they give and love the font. So cool! And reminds me of when I was little, they really haven’t changed.
I absolutely love and use label makers all the time! I look for them at garage sales. Thanks for the chance to win a new one! MERRY CHRISTMAS!
I love this idea…thanks
I love the looks that the labels add. I have seen projects that use it but never have tried it. Thanks for more inspiration. And for the chance to win my own.
ooooh I have always wanted a label maker…even more so now that I have seen the embossing techniques used with it – thanks for the wonderful opportunity!!
Great idea! Instead of using the refills or tape, use cardstock. Love it!
That looks like a really fun way to use the Label maker! I would love to try this.
O My! This is inspiring! What a great idea!
I have been hunting everywhere just to find the label maker so I can do this technique….maybe I’ll find it in a box from you !
I LOVE this technique and I’ve seen it before but I still haven’t broken down and bought a label maker
I know what I am asking Santa for!
I`ve used this technique several times, and I love it! I would love to have a label maker with the interchangable wheels to get different fonts…
What a beautiful layout – and I love the circle punch on the accordion fold fan, it really just adds that extra touch!
OK THAT is the COOLEST thing Ive EVER seen!!!! How do you guys come up with these fantastic techniques?! This is my fav so far and I will have to get a label maker for sure now just so I can try it :O)
what a cool technique!!!
Love how you used your label maker on the your paper! It looks so cool!
Ohh love the idea of a label maker with the Core’dinations line. I don’t like my hand writing..so that is such a cool idea. “Dear Santa, is it too late to ask for a label maker for Christmas?”
When I saw this technique in your tutorials, I immediately went hunting for my old label maker. I found it, but also found why I’d finally gotten a digital one–the old one doesn’t work! I’ve been dying to try this technique–I even asked for a label maker for Christmas. I’m thinking I’m not getting it, so I hope I can win one instead.
I LOVE using my label maker but it’s wearing out. LOVE, love how the heart is made up of cardstock dymo strips – what a great idea
Love how the label maker leaves and embossed effect on the cardstock – so cool!
Awesome project. That is too cool with the label maker – I would be so excited to win this!!
The items shown today are awesome. I love the fonts that are used and would really enjoy using a label maker. Hope I win one.
I love this technique! It looks great & would be fun to do.
Wowie, I can’t get over all of the amazing details! The “ho-ho” heart is the best not to mention the other techniques used.
Labelmakers are so much fun and can make the text really stand out, great ideas you’re sharing! =)
Hugs, Elenor
I love what you created! Thanks for sharing!
