25 Days of Christmas Tags: Day 18


Here we are at Day 18 of Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags! If you need a refresher on what all the festive fuss is about, click here for all the details as well as the main link-up. 
Today we are welcoming Neat & Tangled


Neat & Tangled sent the Tag Team a bunch of fun goodies to play with. Here is tag #1 from me: 



It felt like it was time to do some ink blending, so I used three colours of distress oxide ink for the tag base. I also spritzed it with shimmer mist, because Christmas. After letting it dry, I white-embossed the snowflakes, then added the banner and main sentiment. A couple of ribbons finished everything off. 


Tag number 2! 


This falls into the "what supplies can I use next?" category. :D I hardly ever think to reach for the one multi-colour Kaleidacolor ink pad I have, but with a big sentiment such as this, it seemed ideal. It's inked on a cream tag, with panels of rich razzleberry at the top and bottom - and yes, I even had some matching ribbon! 


And a third, quick and simple tag: 


The tag outline and holly are both embossed in green glitter embossing powder! Glitter glue colours the berries. There hasn't been nearly enough plaid in my tags this year, so I found some plaid ribbon and added a couple of jingle bells as well. And another tag you can write on the front! :D 
Of course there are lots of tags to admire on Tracey's blog today, from my tag friends as well as members of the Neat & Tangled design team. Are you playing along? There are prizes to be won!

Your kaleidacolor tag is a favorite for me. I love the distress oxide as well as the beautifully embossed green glitter tag. That is CAS and I love the sparkle. [Bunny]

STUNNING tags, Lindsey. i love the pastel tag, and the more traditional colored tag. They're both stunning and super inspiring. I know a lot of people will LOVE the pastel inspiration. Great job again today, and thanks for all the amazing inspiration.

This is a lovely collection of tags. Your snowy blended background is lovely. I really like how you did the multicolor inking on your big bold sentiment tag, and your final tag has that wow factor with the green glitter and plaid ribbon.

Oh so pretty!

Lovely tags. My favorite is the second one. I really like the different colored inks. I also like the green glitter on the last tag.

Ohhhh...I'm loving the blending + shimmer of the first, the variegated colour of the second; the green glitter CAS-iliciousness of the third! Trio of WOW!
