Isn't it a beautiful photo with all the greenery and berries...so FUN and FESTIVE!! I used a Penny Black stamp (Christmas Arrangement) and came up with this vintage looking Christmas tag...
I stamped my tag (MFT) with the PB image in black and then heat embossed in clear, and then water colored the leaves, berries, and pinecone. I cut a 2nd tag from kraft (to mimic the color of the basket in the inspiration photo) and stamped it with a Hero Arts stamp (Vintage Christmas Post). I sponged the edges of both tags and also splattered both with Soft Suede ink before sticking them together. I finished by adding a die cut JOY from PTI's Bold Borders: Flurries and a wooden snowflake (SU!). I did add some WOS to the snowflake and pinecone, and also added a couple Rainstones (PTI) and some brown gingham ribbon and twine.
You can check out all the FABULOUS tags from the DT and then play along right HERE.
Thanks for stopping by today ... I love it when you do!
Vintage and fabulous looking Tag Marcia. I never think to just stamp part of an image, so thank you for the fabulous inspiration. Loving all the elements and love the cute berries being framed by the 'O' in the die cut Joy sentiment x.
ReplyDeleteYou always make such beautifully detailed tags, Marcia ... this one is exactly that with the lovely colouring, great placement of the sentiment and that single snowflake ... a delicious little work of art! Hugs, Anita :)
