Christmas Wishes


Tim's Tag #5 inspired me to pull out my alcohol inks.


I pulled out my blue alcohol inks and blended Stonewashed and Stream together with the Snow Cap Additive on acetate and it was beautiful!  I am definitely going to be adding the Snow Cap Mixative again.  I decided to white emboss on front of the tag instead of removing the alcohol ink. I stamped the Vintage Christmas stamp from Memory Box using versamark and  heat embossed using white embossing powder.

I stamped the trees (Stampers Anonymous) and deer (Memory Box)  using versamark on white cardstock and heat embossed using Stampendous Silver Tinsel Embossing Powder.  I cut them out and pop dotted them on the tag.  I tied the green ribbon and accented with bells and twine. The sentiment (Memory Box) was also stamped and cut out and placed behind the frame.  I embossed the frame to coordinate with the tag.

Very simple tag but with lots of embellishments.

Have a wonderful Monday!
