Christmas Tags - Pool Party Frost White Shimmer

This is the 3rd tag and one of my favs.  I love the Pool Party color and more Frost White Shimmer.  The tag base is Natural White cs.  The shimmer was applied using crumpled up plastic wrap, then sponged Pool Party and Soft Suede ink over it.  Applied 2 way glue to the outside of the bird and the center of the stamped Ornament image then added Dazzling Diamonds glitter, for that extra sparkle.

 The next tag is similar except I sponged the Frost White Shimmer paint over drywall tape then removed it.  I attached this one to a Naturals White card base and used some of the Spice Cake DSP for layering.

Please send me an email if you have any questions regarding these cards, or any of the items I post on my blog.

Christmas Tags - Winter Post Ink Resist

This is the second in the tags we did at class.  I used the same colors in both but one had more of a gold tone.  For the gold I used Gold Lame Smooch and Champagne Mist Shimmer paint.
 The other tag used more of the Champagne Mist Shimmer Paint and some Cajun Craze ink.
We started with a Natural White base tag and stamped the images with Versamark and embossed with clear embossing powder.
Next we sponged using Soft Suede and Cajun Craze.  Depending on which color you wanted to be more dominate, they would turn out quite different.  Using the Soft Suede and Music Notes Wheel we did second generation image over the embossed tag.
For the large star we used the Crimper and inked with Sponge Daubers in color of choice.

Christmas Tags - Monochromatic

Well I'm almost ready for Christmas and have been busy with classes, but now they are finished until after the New Year.  Time to get my stuff done.
For our November/December classes we did tags that can be added to a card if you wanted.
Over the next few days I'll be posting the tags we did.
This is the first one, it is monochromatic with embossing and a little bling.
I did a second one and upped it some by adding some pearls and Crumb Cake seambinding.
Hope you like and will give them a try.
If you have any questions please send me an email and I will try to answer.
The colors used was Naturals White and Crumb Cake.

Christmas at Our House

No card or stampin post today, but some Christmas decor photos.
I've had most of my Christmas decorating done for about 3 weeks and decided I would post a few.  
I love Christmas and what it's about...the birth of Jesus.  
This tree is the one in our living room.  I call this one my Angel tree.  Lots of different ones on there, from the lace ones I've made (which is quite a variety) to crystal, glass, whatever I saw or was given.  Love them all.
This next picture is a arrangement on the dinning room table.  Love the silver and white here, sitting on a table runner my mom made me last year.

My front entry done with mostly snowman and this year I decided to do a little less.  I always do a snowman tree in my Stampin/craft room, but this year was too crowded in there so just decorated the entry.  I think I need a bigger craft room for all my Needs....wants, and now with the new Occasions Mini starting in January, I will be crowded even more.  Gonna have to get a room built onto it....I wish, but I don't think that's going to happen.
Thanks for visiting and taking a look.
Wishing you all a Merry Christmas and remember The Reason for The Season!!!
