Christmas Tags in July


I am in a Christmas Tag Swap for 15 tags. It was alot of tags, but I worked on them in parts over the last few weeks. They are all packaged up and sent off. Now I will get back 15 unique to and from tags for my Christmas packages. I did this last year and it was wonderful. Gotta love a little Christmas in July.

I started with large manilla tags and then used my shimmer mist on both sides. The stocking image is by The Stamping Bug and the to & from images are Stampin Up. I used distress ink in peeled paint for all images. Then a little diamond stickles to highlight the stocking. A bit of ribbon and lace for a tie and they are finished. TFL
