I think it's a sign of the season that the challenges this week at CAS-ual Fridays and Stampin' Royalty were to create a gift tag or to use a tag on a project. I've been trying to stay on top of my Christmas projects this year and I was already in tag-making mode so it was kind of fun to be able to share one of my tags on a challenge site. To keep things interesting I used the colors from Color Throwdown and the sketch at iSpy.
The Tempting Turquoise with the obvious Christmas colors of Lucky Limeade and Cherry Cobbler threw me for a bit of a loop and I considered a couple of different images on my tag before I thought it might be fun to combine the red and green with some blue snowflakes. There are actually two snowflakes here layered together and the top one has been covered in Dazzling Diamonds to add some glitz. At the last minute I added an Ice Circles Rhinestone Brad, which looks way better in person that it appears here.
The holiday season is truly upon us because later today I'm off to Borderland State Park to help out at a holiday concert. Time to Jingle Those Bells!
God Bless you guys who make your own tags...mine are always store-bought...doesn't stop me from admiring yours...FANTASTIC!
