Hi and Merriest of Holidays to you!

Thought I'd share a tag I made with Lawn Fawn's

Ho Ho Holidays' stamps and dies.

I love to color and this was perfect to play with my copics.

Hope your enjoying all the season's best!

Cheery greetings picked up with some PTI products,

complete with frothy peppermint!

On to Day 14!

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.

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.

Dashing through the Snow

It's the day after Thanksgiving, better known as 'Black Friday' to savvy shoppers,

and we're bringing you a new challenge at Tag You're It. 

It's a great excuse to stay home today, away from the crowds and create a tag.

Our featured artist for this challenge, is Jessica Frost-Ballas, and she's given us this

frosty pink yummy to case.

And here's some more inspiration from me:

Loved the pink, loved the snowflakes, and cased her deer with a stag head at the tag's top.

Created a shaker with a iridescent sequin mix from Poppystamps.

the window is also from Poppystamps: Evangeling Floating Square.

Platinum embossed wood snowflakes scattered on top.

Sentiment is an old Memory Box die called Curved Dashing.

There's plenty of inspiration on the Tag You're It blog from our designers. Come by and take a look.

You have 2 weeks to play along. We love to see what you do.

Thank you Jessica, for a beautiful tag to inspire us!

A little Naughty

Hi everyone! Are you playing along with 25 Days of Christmas Tags?

Avery Elle is the featured stamp artist today, on Day 18 of Tracey's blog.

I just adore this sassy cat from Avery's Dear Santa set, and took inspiration from my 

friend, Michele Ferguson's tag today. Michele's, 'shut the front door', sentiment

brought a chuckle, and love casing her touch of good humor!

Create Along With Us - November

I just love Create Along With Us, PTI's release week case of designer's creations.

The month of November presents us with holiday wonders, florals, new dies, and 

designer papers. Always enchanted with the whole affair!

This month Melissa won my heart with this layered and lovely tag,

 attached to a Pillowbox.

I didn't stray far from Melissa's rustic style and colors.

I did have to improvise, not having the tag, star or new stamps Melissa used... yet.

Started with Tagsale #4, and instead of a star, Damask Snowflakes.

Double Ended Banner stamped with Background Basics: Christmas, an old set that 

fit the banner perfectly.

My sentiment is from Beautiful Berries: Winter, stamped onto the round tag

from Bite Sized Tags.

All those Christmas ferns are from Spruce & Sprigs.

Oh yes and that wonderful Pillowbox die, and I'm ready to present someone 

special with an inserted gift card or small item with holiday flair! 

Melissa, always love your inspiration!

Silver White Winters

It's time to concentrate on my stash of Christmas cards, and I'm way behind!

How about you? 

HLS Watercolor Challenge has a new inspiration for the month of November,

Anything Goes with a twist TAG. Play along for a chance to win a 20. GC to 

shop on  the HLS website.

Here's my card, hopefully it will inspire you to play along.

Background stenciled with watered down inks (PTI) on watercolor paper, 

and PTI's snowflake stencil.

Then I die cut the tag PTI's Holiday Tag Along die, out, and also cut 4 more from

Winter Wisteria Cardstock.

Silver White Winters also from PTI, snowflakes watercolored and embossed

multiple times. 

If you have waterbased inks, they work fine as a watercolor medium, and 

blend beautifully!

Hope you'll play along this month, I'd love to see you create! 

Happy Crafting!
