Last Minute Gifts - Part 2

Seems like we all need some help with last minute gifts and it just so happens that was one of my challenges for the IMAGINE Crafts blog!


Today's last minute gift could actually turn into several minutes because you might just get carried away like I did with these - Dog Tag Charms!  StazOn inks - both regular and opaques make these charms quick and easy not to mention FUN!


All you need are the dog tag blanks, StazOn Inks, Glaze On (to seal the inks), a few stamps and bit's and bobs to add to the charms.  Originally I started out intending to make 3 tags but ended up with a dozen!!  I don't know how I did it but they just went so quickly and I had so many ideas, I couldn't help myself.

To find the complete directions for these fun charms please see:



Now I would like to share these tags with a few readers.  To enter to win one of these charms, post an answer to this question:   Have you ever made dog tag charms or any altered charms for that matter.

You have until 12-31-15 to enter to win.

Good Luck Everyone!!

  3. Would Gel Medium or soft mat work as well as the Glaze On? Thanks, Bee L

    1. It may Bee - I haven't tried it but the important thing is that the StazOn is sealed between layers. I'd say give it a go!

  18. Hi, Roni. I've made lots of charms before and have participated in a couple of charm swaps. But I've never heard of dog tag blanks. These charms you've made are great! Thanks for sharing them.

  19. These are adorable...and addicting! I've made altered dog tag charms but I've built up turning them into mini shrines. I love your charms!

  20. Yes, I've done altered charms and had a great time. I participated in your shared charms project. Maybe you'd consider doing another one for dog tags. On the other hand, I realize it's a lot of work.
    Your dog tages are so unique. I keep saying to myself, "i should have thought of that". Thanks Ronnie.

  24. These are adorable, Roni and I can easily see how 3 would turn into 12 in no time!! I've not done any dog tags yet, but after looking at your tutorial, will be changing that very soon! I love working on dominoes and puzzle pieces and all kinds of altering. Thanks for sharing your creativity!!
