Christmas Tag


The Inkylicious tag has been decorated with resist stamping using a snowflake stamp and DI inks. I've then re-stamped the snowflake with the darkest ink. Stamp is a very old one from QVC. Snowflake die is from Spelbinders and has been cut from blue glitter card and white stardream. Tag is finished with a button, pearls, ribbon, bow and a bell.
Top Tip - to save pennies use household sponge scourers for inking, cut them into small squares and have one for each ink pad. 

Challenges entered:
Oldie but Goodie - let it snow
Cooking it up with Katie - die cut a tag for Christmas
Fussy and Fancy - anything but a card
Crafty Emma's - snowflakes
One Stop Craft - blue
Fashionable Stamping - I'm dreaming of a white Christmas
Little Darlings Challenge - silver bells
CBGM - mens monochrome

    Carol,
    This is spectacular. Blue is my favorite Christmas color and the cost saving idea for your TIP is great. We just did that this weekend on a canvas painting and it works WONDERFULLY!
    Thank you so much for your submitting your lovely tag and brilliant and thrifty tip as well.
    Good luck to you from Top Tip Tuesday!
