Well all I can say about Becky's tag is that I hope she sends it to *ME* for Christmas!
Today's tag features more traditional Christmas colors, but hopefully keeps that soft and romantic feel with the use of watercoloring and vintage trims.
Place the tag over the portion of the Graphic 45 paper you want to cut out and trim around the edges with a Judikins Craft Knife. Adhere the paper to the front of the tag.
Stamp and heat emboss the lamp post from the Festive Sounds stamp set with Detail Black Embossing Powder on a tag using the Ranger Craft Tool.
Put a small amount of Heirloom Gold, Sunflower Sparkle and Pearl Perfect Pearls Pigment Powder on the Non-Stick Craft Sheet. Spritz with water.
Mix the Heirloom Gold into paint and apply to lamp standard.
Fill the "glass" portion of the light with the Pearl (white) color and then while it is still wet, add some Sunflower Sparkle and allow it to bleed into the white.
Allow the paint to dry and cut out the image with sharp tip detail scissors.
Stamp the image again with Jet Black Archival ink on Judikins Eclipse Tape.
Cut around the left side of the image and place on the tag.
Ink the music background from the Festive Sounds stamp set with Fired Brick Distress Ink.
Stamp the image on the tag on an angle. Remove the Eclipse Paper and set aside.
Stamp the Christmas Carols sentiment from the Festive Sounds stamp set with Jet Black Archival Ink on a tag and cut it out.
Spritz the image with a Mini Mister filled with Perfect Gold Perfect Pearls and water - heat set.
Press the image onto an watermark or embossing ink pad. Dust with Clear Embossing Powder and Heat set.
Apply Candy Cane Stickles as berries to the sign.
...and Green Stickles to the edge and leaves.
Color the words on the image with Red Spica Glitter Pen.
Stamp the Santa image from the Mini Holidays stamp set on a Crystal Clear Sheet and heat set.
Cut out.
And paint the back side with Blank Canvas Studio Paint.
Press to the tag while the paint is wet.
Apply foam tape to the lamp standard and adhere to the tag.
Paint Santa's coat and hat with A Dash of Red Studio Paint. Allow to dry.
Apply small dots of Flower Soft Glue over Santa's bead and hat and dust with Polar White Flower Soft.
Cover the glass portion of the lamp with Glossy Accents.
Attach Crochet Ivory Ribbon with the Tiny Attacher stapler.
Apply strong tape on both edges of the tag and foam tape in the middle.
...and add the sentiment piece over it.
Adhere three Red Twinkle Sticklers to Santa's hat.
Punch a hole in the top of the tag and cover with a sprocket gear (Ideology) and tie with Ivory 1 1/4 inch ribbon.
Wishing you a wonderful week creative friends, please do come visit us again tomorrow!
