MCT 12 Days of Christmas ~ Day #9

Hey there! If you arrived here from Tracy’s blog, you’re on the right track. If not, start at Emma’s blog here: My Creative Time.

For my project today, I decided to work on another tag design. I decided to incorporate the design of the card I did for the first day into my tag. The colors really match our Christmas decorations and since I already had the paper printed I figured why not.

I sized the tag using my Gypsy. It’s cut from Kraft cardstock and I stamped the background with my Background Basics: Houndstooth stamp in VersaMark Dazzle. I then embossed with with clear embossing powder. The papers are from Mr. Frosty. I used the holly pattern to make a rosette and I used the pink snowflake pattern as my layer. The rosette was made with two 1.25” x 8” strips of paper and I scored ever 1/4.” I used my Curly Label die and felt the make a medallion for the rosette. My sentiment is from Gift Card Sentiments. It’s stamped on ivory cardstock from the Paper Company.

I used my polka dot background stamp and Melon Mambo ink to add dots to the background of my patterned layer. The green scallops were cut from Colorbox cardstock that I got from Wal-Mart. I got another Fiskars Scallop Sentiment punch. I cannot live without a scalloped border punch!! I tied some twine around bottom of the card and a bow around the top.

Before I adhered the rosette to the front of the tag, I used the to and from stamps and Melon Mambo ink, to stamp the back of the tag. These are going to go on a few select gifts as I don’t think I can handle making that many rosettes!
