here is a cute Christmas tag that I created for my son:
- cut a tag from watercolor paper and stamp one of the cute little penguins from Mama Elephant Arctic Penguins with Versafine Onyx Black
- mask the penguin with Eclipse Tape and stamp the floating ice sheet from the same stamp set
- mask penguin and ice sheet and create a background using Distress Inks (Tumbled Glass, Shaded Lilac, Broken China)
- mist the tag with pearlized water still leaving the masks on
- color the images with Lyra Rembrandt Polycolor Pencils and Zest-it
- check if everything is really dry and stamp the first part of the sentiment from Mama Elephant Jolly & Merry with Versamark and heat-emboss with metallic purple embossing powder
- stamp the second part of the sentiment from the same stamp set with Versafine Onyx Black
- stamp the tiny dot with Versamark and heat-emboss with WOW! White Puff embossing powder to add some cute little snowflakes
- add Distress Glitter (Clear Rock Candy) to the floating ice sheet
- stamp the little santa hat on white cardstock and color it with the same colored pencils and add Liquid Applique (White) to the pompon and the brim
- add two strings of twine to the hole of the tag
Here is a close-up:
