12 Tags of Christmas 2010

Yes, It's finally here....


Day 1

Well, Lets just say all I had that Tim used was the inks, the ticket die, the texture fade and the stamp. I had to improvise the rest.
But hey, this is what its all about Inspiration!

No, you're not seeing double. Every year I make 2 of the tags each day. One to keep and one for an early Christmas present for my sister.
No Rickety House die, but I do have another Halloween House by Sizzix. That'll work!

I didn't have the picket fence die, but I do have the rosette die. Well what do you know it looks just like a white picket fence. Who Knew??

I also didn't have the Prima wire branch, but I do have the branch tree die. Run it through another texture fade and it looks great. Instead of the holly garland wreath, I used an ornament and my placement really made it stand out.


It also gave the tag weight it the front enough to make it free standing. How cool is that??
Thanks Tim, Cant wait for tomorrows challenge...

  15. Hello Stephen,

    last year you made also tags for your sister and I took the idea and make two also. One for me and one for the christmaspresent of my friend !

    Nice tag in its whole, but my favorite is the fence !!! Great idea to use this as a fence . You're completely right about using it as a fence : it looks perfect. Fun that it stays up by itself now too :)
