Elf At Work

Hello Crafty Friends!

It's November and Tracey McNeely is hosting the 25 Days Of Christmas Tags celebrations. Today it's STAMPlorations turn. Given that I am part of their DT, I was able to take part in this event.

My project using STAMPlorations products is this shaker tag .....


I used the largest of the Stitched Tags in combination with one of their Basic A2 Panel Dies in combination with the Christmas Elf stamp set, their new Christmas Sentiments Dies and the Oh, My Stars! Mini Stencil. Links to all products can be found at the end of my post.

I started off by cutting the tag twice from white card and once from acetate. I stamped the elf legs on one of the tags, masked them off and sponged with Daffodil Delight SU ink before cutting the panel and sponging the stars around the legs.


I attached the panel in place as shown to match with my yellow frame tag. I was using Flower Soft, something I had for ages, as my snow and only needed a shallow pocket hence it didn't matter that I attached the piece of card to my base tag. It actually helped with aligning the 3D sticky tape to my base tag.

STAMPlorations owner Shery has a little surprise for you, pop over to the STAMPlorations Blog and leave a comment for your entry in the prize draw and your chance to win the Christmas Sentiment Dies my teamies and I used in our tags today.


I added the stamped holly, layered up my tag, added my sentiments and finished off with gold ribbon and a couple of coloured bells.

Pop over to Tracey's Blog for more tag inspiration from my teamies and all the other wonderful crafters who have contributed so far.


I shall leave you with a last look art my project ...


Have a lovely day!
hugs
