I've been wanting to play with the Really Rainbow Christmas paper for awhile and finally pulled it out for some colourful tags. I was inspired by Beverley Brown on Day 8 of Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags with her use of vellum over a small patterned paper. I decided to use a colourful snowflake die to go along with my colourful snowflake background paper.

I have been working on these particular tags for quite some time...inspired by tags on Day 4 of Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags! Oops! It took awhile for them to come together, but I think they are cute! I was originally inspired by Audrey Tokach's colourful tag. The stamps and sentiment I wanted to use were a little big for this tag so I added a tab above it and finished it off by reusing some fun twine that was wrapped around my Lawn Fawn order. I also found this beautiful branch with pinecones on my driveway the other day and thought it would be perfect to stage some photos!

I have managed to get in some good crafty time lately to build up my Christmas tag stash! I'm loving all of the fantastic inspiration over at Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags. These particular tags were inspired by Zsofia Molnar on Day 9. I pulled out some of my favourite Verve and loved how these came together.

It was Studio Katia day over at Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags yesterday so I set out to create some tags with some of my favourite products from there. Going along with my goal to shop more locally this year, Studio Katia is a Canadian brand that I am very happy to support! I love their high quality products and beautiful designs. I was inspired by the colours in Dana Gong's fun tags. I added a Lawn Fawn critter that I had coloured up with some distress inks and found a glittery red gem to add to his nose (thanks for the suggestion, Auntie Karen!). I am also linking up with the Lawn Fawnatics color inspiration challenge. I then added some fun iridescent ice flakes to finish the tag.

Cheers to Wine Wednesday :)

I was excited to add some more tags to my growing collection! I loved Svitlana Shayevich's pretty tags on Day 2 of Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags. I must admit, when I first looked at them I thought they were gold glitter! That stuck in my head and I set to work to make some tags and the cheers just seemed to go along with the snowflakes. Of course I had to make a wine bottle tag, too, with the cheers die cut! I paired our current favourite wine, Wayne Gretzky Estates Cabernet Merlot from Niagara, with the wine bottle tag.

Paper - Gold and Silver glitter paper; White Daisy cardstock (CTMH)

I felt very inspired when I woke up this morning and checked out Day 5 of Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags, especially by the striking tags created by Zsofia Molnar. I decided to get into my craftroom and create my own version using white, chocolate, and gold. I pulled out this older stamp set from Close To My Heart and set to work with some older papers too. I loved how simply these came together!
