This Motion Crafts Animated Tag kit is really fantastic! It’s useful well beyond the animated image feature. I got it directly from the Motion Crafts website, but I don’t know if it’s still available for sale.
The kit comes with everything you need to create fun, interactive, animated tags. There are a lot of things I love about it:
- This stamp & die set can be used for regular tags as well.
- There are 2 dies for cutting custom animation grids, so you can create interactions that run either horizontally or vertically.
- There are 3 shape dies that let you cut an aperture for your animation window or as a shaker window!
- There are 2 tag inserts so you can create interactions that pull either horizontally or vertically.
- There are also dies for cutting a banner and pull tab for your tag insert.
- The stamps that aren’t animation style, have coordinating dies so you don’t have to fussy cut!
- The stamp set also includes sentiments, so you really do have everything you need to create a full project.
Tutorial
Tips & Tricks
- Use the custom animation grid dies to cut out of color cardstock. Then you can stamp in the same color to coordinate with the rest of your project. I’ve found that darker colors work better than lighter colors.
- Create fun shaker tags with these dies as well!
- Pegz dies work really well for customizing your tags and adding names.
