Today I'm sharing my Tag 9 for the Funkie Junkie 12 Tags of Christmas challenge. I was inspired by every detail of Linda's Tag 9 and could have created the exact same tag, as I loved it so much! But I'm trying to diversify my colors this year and decided to switch to an aqua for the background and use white trees.
I hadn't given this sweet bear from my only new Tim Holtz Christmas stamps any love, so I tripple embossed him and perched him on some Stampendous Shaved Ice mixed with some texture paste. I used a Quote Chip and some floss with a TH pinecone charm. This was inspired by a card my friend Carol made. :)
My friend Madelyn let me use her amazing tree dies. They were cute from quite thin CS, so I mod podged them onto my inky tag. I used Evergreen Bough Distress Ink and Salty Ocean Distress Oxide to create the color. I coated the top with more MP. I embossed the snowflakes from the same set and added some sequins. I really like the cheery feel of this tag and hope you do to. So why not play along for a chance to win a $50 or $25 gift card from the sponsor the Funkie Junkie Boutique?

ReplyDeleteThe polar bear is fatastic and I am grateful to you because now I know how to enhance the stamp that I have ignored up until now. I love the fragments of ice, make the scene so sparkling and now I have to buy them absolutely!
