Papertrey Ink December Blog Hop

Happy Boxing Day!

I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!

We had a great day -- which included having friends and family over for supper.

Today, I'm participating in the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop.

This month's challenge is this fabulous inspirational photo:

Isn't it gorgeous?

I just love it!

 When I first saw it, I immediately thought of my Tinsel & Tags stamps

and decided to make some tags using them.

For each tag, I used the Tinsel and Tags stamps,

stamped in versafine onyx black and diecut with the round tag that came with the kit.

Inspired by the photo, however, I decided to add a little bit to each tag with diecuts.

I stamped the deer onto a coordinating diecut in Delicata Golden Glitz and added

the sprig and berries.

Here, I added the green boughs and red flower (with dimensional adhesive).

Here, I stamped the house onto the coordinating diecut

and added the sprigs and flower.

On this one, I coloured in the snowman stamp using Zig Clear Colour markers,

avoiding the scarf on the stamp.

I tied on some baker's twine for a scarf.

And Sage also make a couple of tags for the blog hop,

using the same stamp set/die, but she did hers in red:

She felt that the words didn't show up well enough,

so she wrote them in in black.

Didn't she do a wonderful job?

Before you go, I just wanted to invite you back to visit tomorrow (December 27th),

as I'm having a celebration (including prizes!) to celebrate the 10th anniversary of my blog!

 

Thanks for looking!
