Day 20: 25 Days of Christmas Tags

Hi there! Quickly posting another tag for 25 Days of Christmas Tags, this

time for Day 20. Cas-ual Fridays is the sponsor.

I'm using Tracey's tag as inspiration today. Here's a look at her tag.

How clever to color the back of the vellum and hilight the image.

Unto Us A Child Is Born

Hi there! How's your Thanksgiving holiday going? 

Mine is full of family and way too much eating. I treasure times like this, with

soaking in as much love and laughter as my house can hold!

I have a Christmas card for you today, made with Poppy's Nativity Scene Sidekick

Die and Stencil set.

Pop on over to the Poppystamps blog for the how to's.

This glorious die complete with stencil, makes card making super simple, and packs

a wow factor!

Blessings!

Day 16: 25 Days of Christmas Tags

Welcome  to my post for Day 16 of 25 Days of Christmas Tags.

My tag today is inspired by Emily Midgett's beautiful Nuvo Glimmered tag.

This was so much fun applying the Nuvo Glimmer paste to the tag, and I love the 

overall glittered effect.

The Card Concept: Homestyle Holiday

Hi! It's Holiday time on the Card Concept challenge blog!

We have a rustic, homestyle holiday photo this time

to inspire us, and I was drawn to the folksy warmth and sparkle of the 

Christmas tree.

I love creating layers for a scene, and stenciling Nuvo's glitter paste on PTI's dark navy 

cardstock was the perfect start for my layered and mixed media card.

25 Days of Christmas Tags: Day 12

It's Day 12 for the 25 Days of Christmas Tags, and the host today

is Pretty Pink Posh.

I used Jeanne Jackna's darling tag shown here, as my muse,

and used the tag's shape, and double cuties with a shaker.

Day 4 25 Days of Christmas Tags

Back with Day 4 of 25 Days of Christmas Tags.

Today Tracey's featuring Reverse Confetti, and I was

inspired by Jeanne Jackna's bright and colorful tag,

Jeanne's project are always standouts, lots of clear bright color, and 

unmatched layered design. 

Here's my tag, using Reverse Confetti's layered tag.

Stayed with Jeanne's pink and lilac inked bg, and added Essentials by Ellen's 

Laurel Wreath dies. PTI: Corner Adorner October bow.

Christmas Tags

During PTI's last month's release, I purchased Betsy's Poinsettia & Pine tag making kit

and decided to make a bunch for a dear friend celebrating a birthday. 

What started out as half a dozen, seemed to grow as I played with colored cardstock 

and stash of Christmas sets.

I hadn't seen for awhile.

When done, I piled them inside the sweet little sleigh, complete with mini

wreath on it's front, boxed, wrapped and my gift was ready to give.

Hope my post gives you lots of inspiration. The sweet mini kit

 comes with decorator paper and dies for easy creating. I just enjoy

stamping, so these are all stamped with PTI holiday stamps.

Here's a look at the tags

I can't wait to do more. What a lovely way to spend an afternoon... crafting!

Day 3 25 Days of Christmas Tags

It's day 3 of 25 Days of Christmas Tags, and the inspiration  just keeps

coming. Today Concord and 9th are the sponsors, and I decided

to use Tenia's tag as my muse.

Here's Tenia's tag:

I love the gold rings, non traditional pink and green, shape of the tag,

well, honestly loved the whole thing!

So here's mine:

Didn't stray far from the tree rings (sorry...) with my tag.

Used the same C9 Tree Ring stamp on PTI's Quilted tag. Even added a bit of 

washi in the bottom right hand corner. Did add the tree and sentiment from 

C9's Christmas Cottage.

Day 1 25 Days of Christmas Tags

Hi and welcome to Day 1 of 25 Days of Christmas Tags.

I know... I posted Day 2 first. This tag, inspired by

Simon Says Stamps' Shari Carroll's GORGEOUS tag

took a bit longer  (drying time).

 Take a look at Shari's tag,

Layers of loveliness everywhere!!! And you know I love layers.

And here's my tag,

Shari has a video showing in detail how she made her tag, lots of mixed media,

layers of paper, and my favorite, topped with starry acetate.

I had no acetate with print, so I made my own with heat resistant acetate, and

snowflakes from PTI's Silver White Winters.

You can see the silver embossing in this photo. 

The strip under PTI's Wet Paint Holiday die is something from my stash 

from Martha Stewart.

Are you playing along on Tracey's blog? Lots of sponsors with LOTS

of prizes!

Hi everyone! It's more of '25 Days of Christmas Tags',

the brain child of my friend Tracey McNeely. 

Lots of inspiration and lots of prizes!

Day 2 and I'm using Tracey's tag as my muse.

Altenew is her guest and sponsor.

And here's my tag

I used a stamp from Penny Black, called Berry Speckled, and a tag from PTI (#10),

and sentiment from Altenew's Halftone Holiday.
