Papertrey Ink Christmas tags

Hello everyone,

Blog-hop-logo

Today is the day of the October Papertrey Ink Blog Hop, and Nichole asked us to make a set of 5 Christmas tags. I was going to try making a set of identical tags but decided it was more fun to mix it up a bit and came up with these.


This was simple stamping and matting onto Tag Sale 3 die with a little glossy accents to finish off.


Again some die cutting and stamping onto Tag Sale 4 with a little Wink of Stella pen on the scrolls to bling them up a bit.



I had a bit more fun with this one. I started with Tag Sale 7 cut in white card and I masked of a circle for the moon before using a versamark pen and clear embossing powder to make some snowflakes. I then inked over the card with a couple of distress inks and stamped the ferns from Bells and Boughs. I used the In the Meadow die to create the snow line and covered it with glitter to make the frosty looking snow. I finally added a baby deer cut on my Silhouette Cameo, and finished it off with ribbon.



A very CAS tag made with Tag Sale 5 and one of the words from the Wonderful Words Holiday set.


Another simple tag using Tag Sale 7 and one of the the Photofinisher dies. The stamp is from the 2009 Holiday Tag Collection.

Well that's all for today - enjoy the hop, and thanks for stopping by.

Hugs

Each of these captures a different aspect of Christmas. They're wonderful, especially the little winter scene you created.
