Christmas Tags

This is my second post today.  This time I am making Christmas tags.  And that is the new challenge over at Twisted Tuesday.  Your creation needs to be a tag or have a tag on it.  THE TWIST ~ What makes you smile. Show us on your creation. It can be a favorite stamp you have and cherish (use it on your tag), your collection of embellishments, stamps, etc, something crafty you received as a gift, etc....just don't forget to tell us and show us what it is that makes you smile when crafting!  This is the last challenge for this year.  The next challenge will start January 1.



 

 

What makes me smile is that all the paper came from my scraps.  I have such a hard time using it up, so this was a great way to use some of it.  These tags I made for my hubby.  He gives his co-workers a bottle of wine for Christmas.  Wine bottle is tagged on picture below.

Recipe:
Cardstock - All papers came from my scraps
Stamp - SU Teeny Tiny Wishes
Die Cuts - MFT Die-namics Christmas Ornaments; Sizzix
Punches: Martha Stewart Crafts Snowflake punch; SU Oval, Scallop Oval and Circle punch
Gems, Ribbon and Twine from my stash

I plan to enter these tags in these challenges:

Bella Da Snowlady

Good morning!  How's everyone doing?  Christmas is just a week away.  Can you believe that?  I have been very busy around here with Christmas shopping and then my youngest son is getting married in 4 days.  Our family has expanded this year.  We have gained 2 daughter-in-laws and 2 grandkids and will get another grandchild in 2013.

Anyway, this is Tuesday and time for another challenge at Creative Craft Challenges 2.  This will be our last challenge for the year and will last for 3 weeks.  The next challenge will start on January 8.  Robyn's Fetish is the sponsor for this challenge and the theme is Non-Traditional Christmas (No Red or Green). I have used Bella Da Snowlady from Robyn's shop for my card today.

Cardstock - CS is Elegant Eggplant from SU and DP is Cosmo's Cricket Mitten Weather 6x6 pad
Stamp - Robyn's Fetish and sentiment is from my unknown Christmas Circle stamps and is stamped in SU Elegant Eggplant ink
