Countdown to Christmas Project #8
Holiday Tags

Good morning and I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

For this week's project we created Holiday Tags!  Each design team member had the option of choosing a style.  I chose the "Square" tags.  I created three different tags using the same style, bringing all my previous projects together and combining the themes :D




All of the cards feature Whisper White cardstock embossed with Northern Flurry Textured Impessions Folder and all have Dazzling Details!!!! Bling...bling...bling....I just love to use glitter for the holidays!

The stamp sets featured are:
  • Polar Party
  • Jolliest Time of Year
  • Serene Snowflakes
The images were stamped on scraps, the colored, then cut-out and adhered to the tag base.

In closing, one of the best things about making Holiday Tags is that you can use up all your scraps!!!!! That's what I did this week. Just cut-up the scraps I had left over from the Countdown to Christmas projects.  You can make tons of tags quickly, all in one style or you can mix it up like I did here :D

I hope you enjoyed this week's project. Remember to visit everyone on the team and post comments on all the blogs as each of us are giving away BLOG CANDY.
