Christmas Tags 2019-Jul-24

Hello and welcome back!

Instead of sharing Christmas cards in this post I am sharing some tags.  These would be handy to use during the holiday season.  I am pretty happy how they turned out, so I would make more!  :D

I die cut the tags using Cas-ual Friday Scallop Tag Fri-Dies.  And made four different styles.

For this tag, I simply stamped (Happy Little Stamps Merry Kissmas) and colored.  To create some visual depth, I used both light and dark ink for the outline and different shades of reds.  The greeting is stamped in black and I added an die cut bow (Hero Arts Ornament Infinity Die) that is made up by two die cuts glued together in an offset fashion.  I also coated the berries in Sprinkled Sugar Stickles which does not show up in the photo.

For this one, I stamped the wreath (Winner & Walter Bloom: Hollie's Festive Floral) in distress ink, but clear heat embossed the red berries.  The pine cones (Hero Arts Vintage Christmas Post Stamp & Frame Cut) are stamped and colored in pencils, and embellished with Platinum Stickles.  The greeting is stamped in Walnut Stain and clear embossed.

For the third tag, I stamped the background using Cas-ual Friday Stamp Starlequin.  And then layered the poinsettia stamped using Hero Arts Color Layering Poinsettia.  

My last tag is similar to the third, instead of a stamped background, I dry embossed it using Kaiser Craft Wood Grain Embossing Folder.  And used a gold leafing pen to edge the poinsettia and leaves.
