Welcome to Day 22 of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags, hosted by Tracey McNeely! Today we have another brand-new guest and sponsor, Erin Lee Creative!
As a new 25 Tags sponsor, Erin Lee sent a generous package to the tag team. My first tag:
Minimal colouring involved here, although since it's a Christmas tag, I couldn't resist giving this zentangled deer a red nose. :D Red and green banners with some shimmer marker is the only other colouring. Looking through my bin-of-many tags, I loved how perfectly the antlers fit on this circle tag. Ribbon and twine finished the simple tag.
My second tag is, perhaps, truer to the stamp design:
My elk is embossed in a cool, noche d'oro embossing powder. Once again, minimal colouring, with just a few red and green beads, and the larger pendants coated with iridescent glitter glue. The sentiment is embossed in clear gold sparkle powder. I added gold crystals and gold check ribbon to coordinate. I was going to frost the kraft tag in white ink, but decided instead to add a little glimmer paste for more sparkle.
It's the home stretch now, so I'm hoping to keep up with my goal of a card each day:
This time I embossed the deer in another fun embossing powder, black gold. I created the background panel using a mask cut from a tree die, and blended distress inks for a night sky. To coordinate, the antler banners are blue Copic and gold Smooch paint.
As always, there is a ton of inspiration on Tracey's blog today. Whether you are inspired to create tags of your own, or inspired to comment on designers' posts, you will be in the running to win one of our many sponsor prizes!
