25 Days of Christmas Tags: Days 2, 4 and 7

I'm still catching up on Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags and have a trio of designs to share today.

 For Day 2, I was smitten with Kymona Tracey's charm embellished watercolored tags.

 

A trio of PTI Folded Tags are watercolored with Zig Real Brush markers before the Mama Elephant Jingle Greetings sentiments added. Each tag has a snowflake charm and jingle bell added to their twine ties.

For Day 4, Design Team member Carole Mayne inspired me with her layered tags.

 The MFT Tag Builder Blueprints and Gift Tag Greetings are used to create this trio of tags in white. black and kraft combinations.

The tags are stacked so the second sentiment is hidden.

For Day 7, I was inspired Tracey's layered ornament tag.

Once again, Design Team member Joyce came to the rescue and I borrowed her Birch Press Design Caprice Heart Layer dies to cut the layers in Christmas colors.

A MFT Jingle All the Way heat embossed sentiment and white silk ribbon finish off this tag.

CASology Week 321: GLASS

Welcome to Week 321 at CASology!

From ornaments to a celebratory drink, there are many different directions and types of cards to make with our cue word this week. I decided to make a snow globe card to add to the Christmas card stack.

A circle is cut from a white panel, covered with a transparency and framed with a MFT Circle Shaker die cut. Using the panel cut out as a guide, the Lawn Fawn Ready, Set, Snow image is stamped on the card base, colored with Copic markers and highlighted with a Viva Pearl Pen. A fun foam MFT Circle Shaker frame is adhered to the card base and filled with coarse glitter before the top panel is added to create the shaker.

The design team has a great selection of cards!

25 Days of Christmas Tags: Day 5, 8 and 9

I'm getting caught up with Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags with another trio of tags to share. You can find all the challenge details here.

Newton's Nook Designs is the sponsor for Day 5 and I was inspired by several of the ornament shaped tags and Design Team member Lindsey M-P's stockings to pair a PTI with Newton's Nook Designs Holiday Wishes images and MFT Snow Globe Sentiments.

The images were stamped first, then the tags die cut and the images colored with a rainbow selection  of Copic markers.

For Day 8, I was inspired by Linda Walmsley's Santa on a repeated stamped sentiment background.

MFT's Jingle All the Way stamp set provided both the image and sentiment for this tag. Santa was stamped  and masked, the sentiments added and then the Santa colored with Copic markers. Nuvo Gloss Drops add a little texture to the hat trim and beard.

For Day 9, I was inspired by Design Team member Joyce Mehrberg's delightful wreath wearing flamingo.

It is actually Joyce's stamp that I stamped and die cut while crafting with her a few days ago. I used the PTI Made with Love Tags 2 dies to provide a base for the Copic colored flamingo and added a heat embossed MFT Snow Globes sentiment.
