The 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2019 ~~ Day 19

Hello again, I'm back with a couple of Christmas Tags for Day 19 at the 25 Days of Christmas Tags.  Oh my goodness the challenge is winding down and it has been so much fun. 

This was a fun tag to do, I used a Snag em stamp from Imaginice, I searched but guess they are not around except on e-bay, I have had this little fellow for 10 years along with quite a few others that need to be used more often for tags. My tag doesn't have a lot of white spatters as I seem to need to go to a class on how to spatter paint. 

I chose Karin Akesdotter's tag for inspiration

What a cutie pie.

Thanks for stopping by today stay tuned for Day 19 part 2

25 Days of Christmas Tags 2019 ~~ Day 18

Good Morning and I have my tag done already!! it was an easy one even if I had to make it twice, double sided tape is not forgiving and the fact I can't center my sentiment helped too. But I'm happy with the finished results. Again I mirrored Lindsey, although there were others that use the same image she had me at "used a kaleidecolor ink pad, I have 4 of them and one still has the packaging on it. I even had the same colour she used Razzleberry it was a sign I had to use her tag as inspiration.

I even had a sentiment that coincided with Lindsey's. And I used Razzleberry taffeta ribbon. 

Have I mentioned how much fun I'm having making tags?

Here is Lindsey's Tag.

25 Days of Christmas Tags 2019 ~~ Day 17

WooHoo I'm on track again. Day 17 there were so many tags all of them beautiful, it was really hard to pick one to be inspired by but I chose Carol's Tags.

I used Impression charm dies, I don't have super tiny bow dies so I tied my own bows out of gold ribbon. Both ornaments are backed with gold. 

Here is Carol's Tags (she made two)

25 Days of Christmas Tags 2019 ~~ Day 16

I'm back again with some tags today, Day 16 and I chose Lindsey's tag (again) I like the idea of a bird on a tag and found a stamped image to use, I coloured it with alcohol markers and fussy cut it.  Since I have cards to work on I kept Days 16 and 17 simple. Although I had other ideas when I started thinking on Tuesday.

Here is Lindsey's tag.

Baby It's Cold Outside!!!

Baby it's cold outside is not the case here in southern Ontario it's dull and damp, the snow we had two weeks ago is all gone. No wonder people are getting sick with the unpredictable weather we have.  Anyway I finally got my card done for the Jingle Belles Challenge which ends in one hour so best I hurry. For my card I used the current Sketch fromTuesday Morning Sketches.

I used my Cover a Card background stamp from Impression Obsession and of course a house mouse stamp, Close Knit Friendship with Maxwell and Amanda. The ink I used for the background is Brilliance Sky Blue and it has a pearl shimmer and can be embossed. I also spritzed the background with a shimmer spray and the ball of yarn was winked with stella a couple of times. it's really sparkly

Finished inside of the card with a sentiment from Stampendous.

Thanks for checking what I've been doing today. 

Winter Wishes.....

Day 18 at Beccy's Place is to use the letter Q as  your inspiration and I managed to get a card done on the proper day. Beccy i in Australia so she is technically ahead of us here in Canada, by the time I see the prompt it's almost over. But I got a quick idea and ran with it.

I guess you would call this a FAUX quilt, I used the top die of a two die set on background dies, it's faux stitched and I added some pretty snowflake paper behind, didn't want to cover it up so just a simple Winter Wishes die cut.

close up of the sentiment and I think you can see the faux stitches.

One of my very favourite vertical sentiments  and a left over piece of patterned paper on the inside.

It's time for a NEW Challenge at Shopping Our Stash ~~ So Thankful

Shopping Our Stash has a new challenge and it's So Thankful, you can join in the  fun by making a Thanksgiving card (a little late for Canada) or just a Thank you card. I made a Thanks card. I needed a few thank you cards and needed them to be easy and simple, and believe it or not it I made a one layer card.  Earlier this year I found a huge box of note cards (A2 size) at the local Goodwill store, they were printed on the front and blank on the inside and had envelopes too. "score" . Here is how I decorated my "thanks" card.

I die cut the Thanks out of foam core and adhered it to the card, then added a trio of pale coral flowers with leaves to the corner I then coloured some rhinestones with a dark yellow marker an attached them to the centers of the flowers.

The flower dies are from a Stampin'up set I don't use very often and there are gorgeous flowers and leaves, they also some with stamps and co-ordinating paper.

Thanks for stopping by today and head over to the main blog and check out what the rest of the teeam are Thankful for.
