25 Days of Christmas Tags: Day 5


It's Day 5 of Tracey McNeely's 25 Days of Christmas Tags event! Today we are welcoming Reverse Confetti


Reverse Confetti is letting the Tag Team play with some goodies from their brand new release out today! I received the sweet stamp set Birdie Buddies. Here's my tag: 


If I have a stamp set with music notes involved, I'm likely to find a way to include them. For this tag, I used them to randomly stamp a background panel in festive colours. I wanted my birdie to be bold, so I paper pieced him with red cardstock, and added a little white gel pen on his wing feathers. To get just the right size tag I wanted, I cut my own rather than using a die to make a tag. Then I decided I wanted a contrasting tag reinforcement. While I am sure I have such a die, could I find it? Of course not. Luckily, I had another die that I could make double use of. Finally, I stamped and added the sentiment banner. 


Want more information on how to play along with this fun event? All the details can be found here. Whether you decide to join us by making tags, or commenting on the designers' tags - you will be in the running for a terrific prize!
