I'm trying to catch up today, last Thursday and Friday were very busy and I didn't have much time to craft, I'm not sure if I have a cold or it's just sinus with a touch of bronchitis but I'm not feeling up to par today so decided I would just hang around in my 'jammies and get caught up on a few projects that needed finishing. Day 4 at the 25 days of Christmas Tags I chose Lindsey's tag, she made two but I only completed one, I wanted to try the technique she did with the snowflake stencil and embossing paste with glitter in it, well that proved to be a disaster, not sure if my paste was too thick or too much glitter, but it just wasn't working, went to plan "B" .
Plan "B" I used 3 of the snowflakes from a long retired Stampin'up set called Snow Spot, inked them up with Brilliance Mediterranean Blue and embossed them with Silver Pearl, which tones down the dark ink and gives it a shine. Since I had no blue ribbon I decided to go with Red for my accent colour.
Here is Lindsey's tags\

Thsi is gorgeous, really loving that ribbon! Beautiful colour combo, Barb! I hang around in my jammies even when I'm not sick haha. Hope you feel better soon!
Love your version with the red sentiment!
Terrific tag!

This is so pretty! Also easier than messing around with embossing paste (and glitter!) so I say you win. ;)
What a lovely tag. Thank you for participating in the 25 Days of Christmas Tags!
