On the run up to each Christmas, I usually take part in Karen Telfer's Christmas Tag challenge. Because we were living in the caravan and I didn't have my craft supplies, I wasn't able to take part in 2024. Now my craft room is set up, I thought I had better get cracking on the tags. For 2024, Karen was doing 12 tags rather than 24 as she had a busy work schedule.
This is my Day 7 Tag (You can watch Karen's tutorial here).
Formy tag, I have used several Tim Holtz/Stampers Anonymous stencils. These are the ones I have used: THMM178 - Christms Dots , THS164 - Pinecones, THS138 - Bubbles and THMM102 - Brickwork.
Through the stencils, I have used four shades of Distress Oxide Inks: Twisted Citron, Bundled Sage, Peeled Paint and Forest Moss.
I used Mowed Lawn Distress Oxide Ink to colour the edges of the tag. I hand cut various green banners from off cuts of cardstock in my stash. Using Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" green ink to stamp the seniments on the banners, which are part of the Simon Says Stamp "Tiny Words - Christmas" stamp set.
This is a lovely tag in shades of green Sam, and I love your touch of adding the seasonal words onto the fishtail banners, and the mix of stencils work together brilliantly, and finished so prettily with the coordinating dotty ribbon. x
