This is a fun themed gift tag for some blu-ray discs, using the Tim Holtz Retro TV die.
Short process video: https://youtu.be/RT5SbqyQRhA
First tag, using the purchased dome: I cut the steel rule die using a variety of paper in dark shiny silver, gray, brown, and black. Next, I assembled the pieces of the TV. I stamped on the “screen” and built a shaker using the matching Sizzix shaker dome. I placed all of the pieces on a custom tag 4 1/4” wide by 6” tall.
Second tag, building my own: I cut the steel rule die 19 times in brown cardstock. I stacked 16 copies of the die, holding back three. I used two to build the back, sandwiching the stamped message and image between them. I used one to build the front, attaching a clear piece to make the screen. I used Foundry Wax to make the legs golden and partial embossing to make the antennae silver. I filled the well with shaker elements before attaching the top layer.
The sequins and other shaker elements are stored in 4 ounce Ikea spice shakers.
