Sweet Christmas Tag

Before Megan left for school, we were watching the Amazing Race from the beginning.  It's been an interesting seeing the evolution of the show over the years it has run.  No matter what season it is, the teams still bicker pretty bad.  Some are definately worse than others.    It's still an entertaining show.  Make me want to travel even more.

I made this sweet Christmas tag this afternoon.  You can never have too many gift tags so I figured better start now.  Besides, it's using Christmas stuff, but not a card.  

The base of the card is 'Tis the Season DSP and also Very Vanilla.  You will see that in a minute.  It's cut out from the North Pole Wonder dies.  Along with the sleigh, reindeer and boughs.  

The sleigh was too plain so I used the water painters with Crumb Cake to color it.  After it was dried, I added Wink of Stella.  You can't see that in this picture.  Sorry.  But, it does look better in person.

Cut some boughs from Garden Green.  Only glue them towards the bottom.  I like them free on the top so the tag has a little dimenson.

Here's the inside.  It's just Very Vanilla with a bough stamped in the inside.  I colored the holly berries with my Real Red marker.  This alone would make a sweet tag.  Then I would have used the Shimmery Crystal Effects on top of the colored berries.  

How many gift tags are you going to make?  They would make an awesome Christmas present for someone...especially if they have a birthday that is coming up soon!
