We're getting ready for Christmas over at STAMPlorations. Come join us at our first Holiday TAGplorations event!
I started out by die cutting the largest tag die I have with kraft cardstock. The tag is from Paper Smooches' Gift Tags 2 set. I then stenciled some texture paste to the background for some interest. I decided to go with the traditional Christmas colors and picked a green and a mustard yellow doily for my tag.
For the sentiment I'm using this Merry Christmas Die from STAMPlorations. I've heat embossed the bottom half of my die cut to create this two toned effect. To make my die cut stand out more against the background, I've mounted it on white foam for extra dimension and coated it with wink of stella for some extra shine. Then I embellished my tag with some sequins and gold thread.
Thanks for stopping by, and I hope to see you link up at our event!
