25 Days of Christmas Tag with Tracey McNeely
Today I am participating in Tracey McNeely’s 25 Days of Christmas Tags as design team member of Curtain Call Challenge.
I have used fish tail banner die from Paper Smooches to die cut my main tag using white cardstock as well as woodgrain pattern paper. I have glued the woodgrain die cut on to the wite cardstock die cut for stability.
I then die cut the frame using PTI silhouette die and sponged blue ink on the edges. The Santa is from Cute Christmas Characters from Clearly Besotted for Simon Says Stamp. I have white heat embossed the santa on watercolour paper, then watercoloured it. When dry, I used the coordinating die to die cut the santa. The gold bow is die cut using Taylored Expression die. The sentiment is from the Cute Christmas Character stamp set which I have stamped on to one of the tiny banner die cut from Simon Says Stamp. I trimmed off the folding banner edges and cut of fish tail ends with scissors to be able to fit on the tag. This sentiment strip is also sponged with blue ink on the edges.

Runway Inspired Challenge #72
I have stamped them on the textured side of Tim Holtz watercolour paper using Archival Jet Black ink. I love this ink for it true black colour and great for watercolouring as the ink is water proof. Anyway, I then used distress inks to watercolour my images. I used Victorian Velvet, Worn Lipstick, Spiced Marmalade, Dried Marigold and Tea Dye distress inks to blend and colour the images. I have used some of the inks to spatter. For the touch of gold, I have added some Heidi Swapp Gold colour shine spatter, a strip of gold card stock and gold sequins from Pretty Pink Posh.
