Tag Blog Hop Day 7

Day 7


I want to THANK everyone for the lovely comments!  I am a technique based girl, so if I can give you some ideas, I am happy!!!

Pleather tag!!!  I stamped "Santa's Coming" all over the cardstock, then die cut a tag shape.  I used ink for the background and added glitter and sprayed with Memories Irridescent Mist.  Next I used 3-D Crystal Lacquer and covered the whole tag 2 times.  The lacquer is pliable when dry and so the tag looks like it is leather!  I tied a little wood ornament charm to complete the tag.

Are you getting enough ideas???  Leave a comment on my blog and follow the other blogs in this blog hop and have a chance to win # 1363 plate.

The next blog on the hop is LC - Jesse's blog.  Create tons of tags, enjoy, and see you tomorrow.
