I just had to create some sweet Christmas Tags with the new Baking Spirits Bright set over at Unity Stamp Co.!

 I had so much fun this morning colouring up this sweet little guy from Unity Stamp Co. *affiliate link with my watercolour distress pencils to make a Christmas tag!

2025 Christmas Tag Count: 8 + 1 = 9

 I am thrilled to say that I am now on the Unity Design Team for Unity Stamp Co.! Here is the first project I have created using stamps from the October Kit of the Month! *These are my affiliate links :)

2025 Christmas Tag Count: 4 + 4 = 8

 This past weekend I got to take part in the coolest crafting class I have ever experienced with the amazing Tim Holtz and Heidi Crowl (owner of Simon Says Stamp). I LOVED using this specially curated kit to get started on my Christmas stash for the upcoming season and also learn some new tips and tricks!

2025 Christmas Card Count: 1
2025 Christmas Tag Count: 4

 Here are some tags I made up for our little friends coloured up to represent their pets!

 I wanted to make up some Christmas gift tags to send to our dinosaur-loving nephews, so I took out some dinosaurs I had already coloured up from the Lawn Fawn Rawrsome set. 

 I am still playing around with this fun STAMPtember set from Tim Holtz x Stampers Anonymous and coloured up some of the reindeer wreath images along with some presents and sweaters.

 Can you tell I have put this Wintry Forest stencil to good use this season?! 

Harvey really wanted to make some Christmas tags with me this year for Chris and Alex.

 I was able to put together some tags for Christmas gifts last week! Our nephews are quite into skiing, so I took out the Pinkfresh Studio Skiing By set.

 I managed to fit in a tiny bit of time to make some fun Christmas tags this year! These ones are for my boys (and I made a couple similar ones for some little friends too!). I was inspired by Lawn Fawn designer Tammy Stark's design earlier this season.

 I definitely ran out of time to make tags this year; however, I was able to quickly throw together a few using some fantastic sets from Pigment Craft Co. 

 Here are some tags I put together using some pieces I already had coloured up from the Lawn Fawn Yeti or Not set.

I was asked a little while ago to make some wine themed Christmas cards to sell at a local wine making shop called Kootenay Wine Works. I made some tags earlier as well that were similar to some I made this fall. I am loving this fun Christmas wine sentiment from Two Lips Stamps and used it for my cards and tags. For the card, I painted a wash of iced spruce distress oxide ink over a snowy stencil from The Greetery. I stamped the wine bottle and sentiment in archival black ink and then used my Tombow markers to create a watercolour look.




Here are the tags that I made:

I finally had a chance to play along with Tracey McNeeley's 25 Days of Christmas Tags! I have loved waking up each morning to check out that day's inspiration. I was very inspired back on Day 11 with Studio Katia designer, Liliya Rystar, with her white and gold tag on kraft. Here is my version:

I finally got the chance to finish up these painted wood tags! I am lucky to have some crafty parents who cut these up, sanded and drilled each tag for me, and then I get to paint them and stamp them and turn them into tags! I love how these turned out and look forward to making some more :).

Wanting to start building up my Christmas tag stash I pulled out the fantastic Holiday Tag Along kit that I got from Papertrey Ink a couple of years ago. I decided to go with the colour combo of Fog cardstock with Iced Spruce distress oxide ink and love how it turned out with the punched out snowflakes. Can't wait to create some more with this kit! I was so stoked to finally get some natural light for this photo :).

I have been itching to ink up this stamp set since I got it and thought it would be perfect on a wine bottle tag! I was playing around with the spotlight effect in portrait mode on my phone and love how this turned out with the wine bottles!

With all of the Christmas tag inspiration floating around the past couple of months, I finally thought to take out this awesome kit I got last year from Papertrey Ink and play around! My sister-in-law needed some tags to go along with some gift bags she was making up and I loved how they turned out :)

What is your favourite kind of tea?

I am a lover of many kids of tea, but my ultimate tea drink is a London Fog! I also like a good cuppa Chai, too. I was inspired to get into my craft room today and create a tea themed tag. I pulled out some digi-stamps from Verve that I had printed awhile ago and played around with this fantastic Holiday Tag Along Kit from Papertrey Ink that I got last year. I even figured out how to elongate the tag die so that it could fit this fun stack of cups. I realized afterwards that these cups were probably intended to be coffee cups, but today they're tea for me!


Favourite Places to Get My Tea Locally:

Purcell Organics - I love their Northstar Chai
Tigz Tea - Lavender Earl Gray is my fave!
KRC - they make a great London Fog
Timber Hitch - excellent iced Chai Lattes
Hot Shots - Chai Mist is my favourite drink there!
