The image on this card, even though it's new to me, is from last Christmas, I think. I wanted to make a card for the latest Tag You're It challenge and I was intrigued by the sketch at Try Stampin' on Tuesday. This card also fits the Christmas theme at Simon Says Stamp.
I wanted to keep the polka dot theme and the holly theme from Tracey's tag so I used some polka dot paper on the card base. I stamped and colored the gorgeous holly leaves from Hero Arts and positioned them onto a small tag cut with one of MFT's pierced tags. The berries are painted with clear Wink of Stella to give them a shimmer. I had to hunt for a sentiment small enough to fit in the space left after placing the holly on and finally found this sentiment in the Build a Snowman set by SSS.
A small twine knot just to show the tag is actually a tag :) and the card was finished.
Thanks for visiting.
