I made these Christmas tags for the Papertrey Ink Blog Hop which calls for making at least 5 tags. I used some very nontraditional colors - dark gray, black and pearly white. To make my tags, I used Smokey Shadow cardstock and my new favorite stamp set, Meadow Greens. I think it is very versatile - not just for spring. "Peace" and the leaf are both from that set. I cut out the tags using the biggest die from the Angled Labels Die Collection.
I embossed the leaf with a glittery embossing powder called Starry Night. It was so glittery, the darn thing was hard to photograph. I must have taken 20 pics before I got something that wasn't a blob of sparkle. Lol.
I used Perfect Pearls for the sentiment. I think that made it pop out despite the sparkle on the leaf. The ribbon is from American Crafts.
Thank you for looking!
