Christmas Tags 2020-Nov-17

 Hello there,

I am taking a break from Christmas cards, but I am making Christmas tags!  😄

First up I am inspired by Lindsey's lovely tags displayed on Day 3 of 25 Days of Christams Tags.  Here's my take:

I went with a blue and gold color combination.  The background in the round tags is Round Art Washi from Altenew.

My next set is really fun, using both positive and negative of the die cuts.

On the top tag, I lined up Altenew Sweet Pea Palette Washi on white card stock, die cut tag and "joy".  This "negative" piece is then glue on a second white tag, and I glue the center pieces back.  On the second the "positive" dies are glue onto same shape tag with Round Art Washi underneath.

 Hello, and welcome back!

I was so inspired by Anna-Karin's slimline tags that I've made a couple myself.  

They measure 2 1/8 by 6 1/8 inches.  I gold heat embossed the image on white mix media paper panel and watercolored.  I partial die cut the top of the panel to create the tag shape.  To finished I splattered some metallic gold ink all over. While I was photographing, a thought came to mind, these slimline tags could double up as bookmarks!  I wanted to link up to the Simon Monday Challenge - Christmas Tags, but sadly I missed the boat! 😞

Vintage Christmas Post Cardinal Tag

Hello friends,

I finished a tag using some colored images from a few days ago.

I stamped a collage like tag with my Hero Arts Vintage Christmas Post set.  I colored the Cardinal with coloring pencil, and die cut using the matching frame cut.  Next I clear embossed the whole die cut to give it shine.  Also I die cut the bird two extra times and glue all three layers together to make it thicker.  I also added Sprinkle Sugar to the Pine Cones to intensify the colors.

Supplies:

Hero Arts Vintage Christmas Post
Hero Arts Vintage Christmas Post Frame Cut
Ranger Distress Ink (Bundled Sage, Vintage Photo, Barn Door)
Memento Dye Ink (Tuxedo Black)
Range Stickles (Sprinkled Sugar)
clear embossing ink
clear embossing powder
The musical note is from Dear Lizzy + American Craft.

Red Poinsettia Tag

Hi,

Short post, I am sharing a tag created for a couple challenges.

Virginia's View Challenge #25 - Stripes and Plaid

The Heart Desires Challenge #6

And here's my tag.

I was inspired by several artists who use poinsettia on their tags on Day 4 of the 25 Days of Christams Tags.

I stamped the plaid panel using Hero Arts cling stamp Canvas Stripes with Barn Door, Peeled Paint, and Antique Linen.  Trimmed and adhered to red tag, and added a fussy cut poinsettia flower which was painted with Twinkling H2Os on gold embossed outline.  The stamp is by Bonnidee.

Reindeer Tag

Welcome back!

If you are looking for my 100th Post Celebration post, click Here.

Today I want to share a tag I made for a few challenges.  First my tag:

While I was working on my last card, I put the left over embossing paste onto an extra piece of card stock.  I trimmed this piece into tag shape and started from there.  The cute little reindeer from Imaginisce is coloured with pencils and trimmed, white gel pen was used for the highlight of his eye and dots on it's back.  I added Sprinkle Suger Stickles to its nose.  The snowy ground is created using Sookwang double sided adhesive and Silk Microfine Glitter (Cool Diamond).   The star is sticker on white CS and trimmed.

Here's a close up, you could the texture and the shine better.
