25 Days of Christmas Tag Day 19 & Day 21 + CHA 2017 Holiday Blog Hop Winner

I am finally back to making tags inspired by Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2017. The inspiration part of the event is over, but you still have until December 1st to comment and link your own tags.

This first tag is a CASE of one of Lindsey's tags for Day 19. I stamped the same Technique Tuesday sentiment in red, added a couple of holly leaves and gold rimmed, ruby gem stickers for the berries.

Using a PTI luggage style tag allowed me to add a stitched frame around the sentiment for a little more interest.

This second tag was inspired by Deborah Frings' heat embossed and inked snowflake tags from Day 21.

The Lawn Fawn Merry Messages sentiment and stars are heat embossed on the tag before the Mermaid Lagoon and Wilted Violet Distress inks were blended over them.

A trio of bells are added to the silver cord before it is tied off at the top of the tag.

Thanks to everyone who took the time to comment on the Craft Hoarders Anonymous 2017 Holiday Blog Hop. The winner of my random draw is Karen Ladd with comment #11!

25 Days of Christmas Tags Day 4 & Day 5

I have a couple more tags to share as I play along with Tracey McNeeley's 7th Annual 25 Days of Christmas Tags challenge.

Amy Rohl's sweet elf tag on Day 4 caught my eye and inspired me to pull out an MFT Jingle All the Way Santa image and pair it with an MFT Gift Tag Greetings sentiment to create this tag.

This second tag is inspired by Virginia Lu's fun star tags from Day 5 of the challenge.

The aqua star die cut is embossed with stars and adhered it to a white star for more stability. The PTI jingle die cut is layered three times before being adhered to the star and the heat embossed sentiment from PTI's Traveler's Journal added next.

A trio of bells is added to the Baker's twine before it is tied to finish off the tag.

25 Days of Tags - Day 1 & 2

Are you playing along with Tracey McNeeley's 25 Days of Tags? You can check out all the details on how to play along here.

I have three tags inspired by the designs from Day 1 and Day 2.

The first tag that really caught my eye is the Enjoy the Magic of Christmas tag from Jo Nevill from the Simon Says Stamp Design Team.

I cut a dark blue tag and used a stencil and embossing paste to create small background stars before adding the gold shimmer cardstock star and Believe die cuts. A simple gold cord finishes off this tag.

This second tag is inspired by Anita's snowflake tag and the vellum layered tag along with the layered snowflake dies and gem center.

Jennifer Timko's tag inspired me to stencil and emboss snowflakes on my third tag.  I love the contrasting colors she used, but went with a more a monochromatic look on mine.

These tags are also being linked to the Wednesday Challenge Blog at Simon Says Stamp where Simon Says: Christmas Gift Tags this week.
