Welcome to Day 8 of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags event! Here we are, onto the second week, and today's guest and sponsor is Avery Elle.
I'm using stamps from A Merry Little Christmas and a circle tag die (one of my favourites!) for today's tag:
I stamped and embossed the cute penguin and mouse onto Bristol cardstock and coloured them with Zig markers. The snow in real life is super sparkly with Lawn Fawn liquid stardust.
Since there was no room for a sentiment on the front, I added it on a second tag:
While I had this set out, I also made a card:
This time I used Copic markers to colour my festive bear, and added Stickles wherever appropriate. ;) A little torn paper gave me a mask to blend a little sky behind him. I used the same sentiment as on my tag.
Remember to visit Tracey's blog to see the inspiration from the Avery Elle team and my tag team friends! You can win one of the many prizes on offer by commenting on designers' posts, or by creating your own tag inspired by one of today's projects. Hope you'll join us!

ReplyDeleteI love how you added the 2nd tag. That's perfect for the sentiment. [Bunny]
ReplyDeleteI love the double tag idea! And great card!!!
ReplyDeleteLOVE all the sparkle!
ReplyDeleteI adore your wonderful tag and card. Thanks for the inspiration for new ways to use one of my fave Avery Elle sets. I like how you used a 2nd tag to hold the sentiment for your tag. Great idea.

Love these critters! TFS
ReplyDeleteAdorable tag and card! I love Avery Elle's darling critters!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely LOVE how you layered the tag and doubled it. Great idea. And such cute little animals, too. Super inspiring and sweet. Thanks for sharing your talents again today.
ReplyDeleteLove the double tag idea. Instead of a sentiment I think I will hide a gift card or money there. My nephews open things so fast without looking at a tag or card. After everything is open I will tell them about the hidden surprise inside the tags so they will help with the cleaning up of the wrapping paper mess to find them.
ReplyDeleteAvery Elle has the sweetest images. Love your hidden sentiment tag and the card is adorable.
ReplyDeleteSo sweet! I love how the tag opens! Such darling colored critters. And great card. I like to stamp lots of similar things because it takes me so long to arrange and make decisions- I have to keep 1 of each in case I want to repeat later!
ReplyDeleteYour tag is super adorable, and love the card too! Thanks for the inspiration!
ReplyDeleteSweet tag..love how it swings open.
ReplyDeleteReally adorable tag and card I really like all of the sparkle that you added both of them are so cute
ReplyDeleteI love the hidden sentiment. Such a sweet!
ReplyDeleteGreat shares. I like that the words are on the second part of the tag.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful creations!!! Your tag is really cute!!!
