Lots of ideas for day one, here is Day 2's tag. Remember to comment each day for a chance to win Viva Las Vegas plate #1363! (See Day one for the image).
This was a fun tag to create!! The tag is acrylic and I sandwiched the image and backing behind the tag and added ribbon and Merry Christmas on the top. There is 2 jump rings so I can add a couple gold charms to hang. Notice that Santa has been cut from his shopping cart - use parts of images and words to create whole new designs.
The paper used is by Robin's Nest, has sparkly snowflakes. I used Memories Irridescent Mist over both the paper and the stamped image to add extra sparkle. I used my favorite metallic gel pen for Santa's suit.
To glue the paper and designed Santa to the tag, Use 3-D Crystal Lacquer sparingly over the whole surface. Ok, I used my finger to spread it flatly over the surface and then pressed the tag on top of the design. I used more lacquer to add the Chrismas words.
The starting of the hop is at our DT's blog Terri Sproul. To continue the blog hop go to LC- Jesse's blog. Comment on all the tags for a chance to win plate #1363!
