I spent quite a bit of time last weekend doing some stamp-shop browsing and found a lot of shiny gold and glimmery gold things with Christmas themes that I really loved. So I had gold and Christmas on my mind when I finally sat down to make my tag for this challenge. The subtle dotted background on Taheera's inspiration became gold embossed snowflakes on my tag and the big sentiment was a no-brainer for me: a happy holiday sentiment that I cut out three times for dimension and went over with some gold Wink of Stella for a bit of sparkle! There's a clean and simple challenge going on at Simon Says Stamp Wednesday challenge so I'll be entering this over there as well.
Happy Friday to all of you and thanks so much for stopping by to visit. I hope you have some time to play along with us at Tag You're It. Our design team has made some beautiful tags so be sure to check them out!
