Good Morning Monday on this fodgie damp morning.Today i have some tags to show you.Yes i have finaly caught up with the Funkie Junkie Challenge 12 Tags for Christmas here is my Tag11.

I was inspired by Linda's tag and thought about time i got my masks out after seeing her beautiful creation Here.So iused Tim Holtz tag Movers and shapers die.Then masked santa also from Tim Holtz sheet.Distressed all over with Gathered Twigs distress ink and also picket fence stain.I then filled the masked area with ranger stickles rock candy.Then added some Prima flowers and Roses sprayed those with tattered angels glimmer mist "Pearl".Ribbon os Papermainia gold with burgundy Happy Christmas on .Then i stamped Naughty or nice stamp whihc i got as freebie from a magazine can't remeber which mag.But the set of stamps which are all sentiments ive used so much this christmas.I have stamped in D/I Gathered twigs.Made atag out of corragated card sprayed with glimmer mist pearl again fixed underneath the flowers.The small wee gold metal charms in the corners are from Linda's ESTY Shop HERE .Worth alook as she has a sale on until end November.Ithen added the Tim Holtz charm Jingle to the ribbon at the top of my tag.Thats my tag 11 can't believe it's nearly all over .Thanks Linda for all the inspiration and challenging my creativeness.




Now onto tag 2 which is for a Novembers tag swap.But also im entering it into this weeks Simon Says Stamp and Show as the theme is Tickets.You have to show tickets on your
creation.I have used again the T/Holtz tag die covered in the lush Distress ink"Festive Berries"I then used a snowflake stamp and inked with Picket fence stain ,stamped randomly over the tag.Let dry then i fixed my T/Holtz birdcage die with a SU vinatge brad to the tag.I have used distress inks on the cage .I then coloured the bird with copics and added red stickles to his breast to look like robin.Flowers are prima the leaf from my stash i sprayed with Tattered angel glimmer spray "Pearl"I then cut a tag from my T/H die and stamped merry christmas in Festive berries distress ink. The brown and red pearls are from Kaiser kraft.





This fianl tag for today i am entering into Hels Challenge The Sunday Stampers .

This weeks theme is "Snowmen".So i have used distress stains faded Jeans and picket fence
to cover the tag (which again is t/Holtz die)Masked the snowman which is from the sheet by Tim Holtz .Stamped the snowflake stamp randomly over the tag in Picket fence stain.Sprayed with tattered Angels Glimmer mist "Pearl"Left the tag to dry.Then got the spray of holly and berries wraped in white lace and fixed to the tag this sprig i think was from prima last year.I added ideology christmas chain and token ehihc has "J" for Jingle.At the bottom left hand corner added a glass fragment to one snowflake whihc i embossed.Unfortunately photo doesnt show that up to well

I have at last caught up and infact starting Tag 11 today.Yippeee.So here are the last of the tags that i had fallen behind with.

Tag 5

Linda's tag for week 5 was beautiful check it out here.I took my inspiration from the Black she had used.dont often use black on atag very rarely.


So i started by using Tim Holtz Tag die.I then had some scrap paper from last year that i covered the tag withI then distressed the tag with D/Inks the winter set and alsogathered twigs.Stamped images from Stampin up in Tea dye from SU,and Black Archival.I added abeautiful vintage image available from My friend June's website Dezinaworld.Printed it off on glossy card.Added glamour dust to edge of wings.Ther Ribbon was from an rak.The black swirls ive had for an age never used these are so glitzy from K&co.I used Tim Holtz ticket die and distressed this using gathered twigs and added festive berries to the edge.Then stamped in copper onto the tag.Made aborder from corrigated card covered in tattered Angel glimmer mist to give the shine.Added an old vintage button to finish it off.Hope you like how i got my inspiration for this tage.One thing i must use black more often..lol





Week 6 Tag 6

Again i got my inspirations from Linda's lovely tag she created for week 6 Here.My inspiration came from the Angel i so wanted to use that.Irealised i hadnt got any angel stamps but found some beautiful D/P Gold embossed from the beautiful set "December 25th "from Kaisercraft.I covered the Tim Holtz Tag Die with that.distressed the edges again with my fav gathered Twigs Distress Ink from T/Holtz autumn release.I then stamped the sentiment from the new Stampin up Release set of stamps called "A Christmas Carol"Used Clear emboss ink,then added Gold su embossing powder to get the finished look.The hessian was from Linda's ESTY Shop.The heart i had found in my stash.Whihc i added prima flowr and leaf to again added Tattered angels Glimmer mist to to get abit of bling.
Last of all added a beautiful metal angel charm with raffia to the bottom of the heart.



Week 9 Tag 9
The inspiration was drawn from The sheet music Linda had used on her tag whihc can be found Here.
Icovered the T/Holtz die cut tag with old sheet music ripped the edgdown one side added distress ink gathered twigs ...ummm guess you can tell this d/Iis a fav!..lol
I stamped the image of Tilda Carol Singing.Cut it out and coloured in with copics adding Glamour dust to the white fur of her coat and hat .I then stamped in archival black the sentiment "Glad Tidings we bring"(by Uptown Rubber Stamp Co),randomly over the tag.The lace i dyed using D/Inks Festive Berries and added kaisercraft pearls to it.I then clear embossed the New release stamp from SU "Beautiful Season"added Ranger embossing powder "Rich Redheated with heat gun." Cut the image out and stuck to tag.Lastly the embellishment button flower made from left over material,to add couple of musical notes to the tag to finish it off.

.the beautiful beaded ribbon ive had in my stash for long while not used.The tag sentiment i just love this is stamped in the D/I Gathered Twigs whihc just is Lush!one of my new Favs!I then cut corrigated card sprayed with tattered ngels Glimmer mist pearl.

I added Raffier to the tag on the tag and some fibers to top of the tag.The dress pin i made from pearls and pins from my craft stock.Small glass snowflake was from an RAK.

Please check out the tutorial above as this is a fab technique and cant quite see on my tag but Tammy has some fab photo's to show you how the embossed crackle paint looks!
