December Tag - Nancy

hi everyone!  nancy here today to share with you a tag i had made for christmas.  yes, i know i am a bit late, but better late than never....and besides, you can always get a jump on next year.  hee hee

to begin the tag i misted some burlap through the 6" damask mascil. before removing the mascil from the burlap, be sure and blot the stencil...this will help with the bleeding.

next, i covered my chipboard tag with some patterned paper i had in my stash.  clear scraps chipboard is nice and sturdy and will easily hold up to whatever type of adhesive you choose. 

then i created a poinsettia with the clear scraps clear craft sheets and the tim holtz tattered poinsettia die.

after cutting the poinsettia, i inked it using a few different colors of stazon ink.  don't forget to remove the protective coating from the acrylic.  

finally it was time to layer the tag.  first the layer of burlap.

then the poinsettia.

a few flowers and a sentiment die cut.

and finally a few bits of ribbon and pearls.

i really like how this tag turned out and it looked lovely hanging from my daughters gift.

happy holidays,

nancy
