The 25 Days of Christmas Tags (day 1, 2 & 3)


Hello!
Most of you must be aware of the annual 25 days of Christmas tags event by Tracey McNeely. I doubt I would bother making tags if not for loads of inspiration and of course prizes during this event.

TAG #1

Here's one with a better view of the shimmer 

This tag was inspired by SSS challenge team designer Ankita's tag in the pic below.
Supplies Used:
Hero Arts - Designer Snowflakes
Uniko - Snowflake Trio dies
Ippity - Season of Joy (sentiment)
vellum 
white ink
glossy accents
clear wink of Stella
Snowfalkes were stamped on the tag, the sentiment heat embossed, the vellum die cut snaowflake was adhered at the tips only with glossy accents, added a drop to the top as well to cover the drop seen through, added more to the centers of the larger stamped snowflakes and finished off with wink of Stella on the large die cut vellum snowflake.

TAG #2

Here's a better picture with specks of gold 

This tag was inspired by the hostess of the event Tracey's Day2 tag below
Supplies Used:
Dreamweaver now Stampendous – Open Stocking stencil
Verve Stamps – Beyond Measure (sentiments)
Christmas DP
gold acrylic paint
The stocking was cut from DP and red paper using the stencil as a guide. Sentiments were stamped on the top of the stocking and the strip of paper, then adhered on the tag which was covered with gold specs long before.

TAG #3


This tag was inspired by Lindsey Concord & 9th designer below
Supplies Used:
Uniko Studio – Snoflake Trio dies
Glitter foam
A panel of glitter foam was adhered on white cardstock, die cut, the center star was die cut in gold to go in place of the white star then a circle die cut was glued behind to cover the cut, hold the star in place and for space to write to the recipient.
