Hello Crafty Friends!!

I'm here with CAS-ual Friday's Stamps sharing a SWEET Tag FULL of PEACE, JOY, LOVE and Sparkle as part of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2019 hosted by 
Tracey McNeely!! 

I'm sharing a SNEAK PEEK of a NEW "Snow Angel" Stamp Set that will be available as a Black Friday Special!! SQUEAL!! Isn't She just the SWEETEST!!?? I LOVE the sentiments included in the Set too!! PERFECT for making Holiday/Winter Tags and Cards!! 

I Started by Die Cutting my Tags one from Whit Cardstock, and one from Lawn Fawn Winter Remix 6x6 Patterned Paper using the CAS-ual Fridays Tag Buddies Fri-Dies Set!! I then Stamped and Embossed the Snow Angle Image in WoW White Embossing Powder!! I Stamped a Mask and cut it out to place over the Angel Image!! I wanted a Subtle Design in the Background so I placed the Tin Roof Stencil over the Tag and Inked with some Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink!! Then I removed the Stencil and Inked the entire Tag using Tumbled Glass Distress Ink!! I added some water Spatters and let it Dry!! 

I removed the Mask and the used Copic Markers to Color in the Angel Image!! 

I used (Face: E00, E11 & E13  Cheeks: R00  Hair: E31, E33 & E37  Robe: BG10, BG45 & BG49  Wings: N0, N2 & N4) I then added some White Gel Pen Freckles, some Tonic Studios Shimmer Pen to the Wings and some Studio Katia Crystals to the Snowflake Centers on the Angels Robe!! I also added some Gold Metallic Nuvo Drops to the Halo!! I Stamped and Embossed the Sentiment onto a Dark Turquoise Cardstock using WoW White Embossing Powder!! I adhered it using Foam Tape!! I then Stamped and Embossed the the Second Sentiment and the To: and From: onto the Patterned Paper Tag with WoW White Embossing Powder and then Inked over them with some Peacock Feathers Distress Oxide Ink, just to make them POP!! I adhered the Tags together off setting them alittle using a Mini White Clothes Pin and the added a Scrap Ribbon Bow to finish off the Design!! 

Such a FUN and CHEERFUL Tag to create!! I hope I've INSPIRED you to create some Tags of your own!!??  THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by and I hope you have a FABULOUS WEEKEND!!

CAS-ual Fridays Stamps November Release 2018 ~ Mistletoe Fri-Dies!!

Pin It



HELLO CRAFTY FRIENDS!!
I'm here today with Day 3 of the CAS-ual Fridays Stamps November Release 2018!!
Today we're showcasing the NEW Mistletoe Fri-Dies!! These Dies coordinate with the previously released Mistletoe & Holly Stamp Set!! 

This is such a BEAUTIFUL Set!! There are SO MANY options too!! 

I decided to share a Gift Tag today!! I KNOW if you're like me Holiday Gifts and Cards are on you mind and I LOVE to give Gift Cards for the Holidays to Special People in our lives!! I think Gift Bags and Decorative Gift Tags fit the bill!! So I started by creating my Gift Bag using a Mama Elephant Die cut from some Chalkboard Patterned Paper!! Then I Die Cut the Tag from the Tag Buddies Fri-Dies Set!! I Die Cut the largest one from some Lawn Fawn Patterned Paper and then Die Cut the Smaller one from some White Cardstock!! I inked the background of the White Cardstock with some Tumbled Glass and Lucky Clover Distress Ink to match the same hue as the Patterned Paper!! I wanted it to be lighter though!! Added some Water Droplets for some texture and then added the Mistletoe Image I that I Stamped, Embossed and Die Cut out!! I color it with Copic Markers and added some Silver Glitter Gel Pen to the berries for a shadow!! I used Tonic Studios in Morning Dew to add dimension and Shine to the Berries and the Red Bow!! I Red Seam Binding Bow adds the PERFECT finishing touch!! 

THANKS SO MUCH for stopping by and I hope you'll come back tomorrow for Day 4 of the Release!!
