Stampers Anonymous "Mini Holidays 4 CMS142" Christmas Tags

Today, I've been using up bits and bobs that I found floating around my odds and ends drawer, so decided to make some Christmas gift tags. In each instance, I have used stamps from the Stampers Anonymous "Mini Holidays 4 CMS142" red rubber/ching stamp set.

Starting from the left, I remember finding the kraft brown tag in a parcel I received. Obviously too good to ditch so I popped it in a drawer.  A couple of years later, I have eventually used it!  I used the Poinsettia stamp with the new "Lumberjack Plaid" Distress Oxide ink, adding touches of yellow Posca Pen to the middle of each flower.  In the background I used the music script stamp, stamped in Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink.

For the central tag, I found a background I had made last year and never used.  If I remember correctly I used "Twisted Citron" and "Festive Berries" Distress Oxide Ink through a stencil.  Over the top, I stamped the Poinsettia stamp in the new "Lumberjack Plaid" Distress Oxide ink.

For the tag on the left, again I'd started it some time ago.  I think the background colour is "Antique Linen" and "Aged Mahogany" Distress Oxide ink.  I stamped the angel using Versafine Clair "Pinecone" brown ink.  I coloured the angel using four shades of Distress Oxide Inks.  Using "Weathered Wood" and "Squeezed Lemonade" for the wings, and a mix of "Mustard Seed" and "Rusty Hinge", for the skin tone, I used "Tattered Rose" Distress Oxide Inks, all applied with a paint brush.  Creating a mask for the angel, I stamped the cracked backgound  using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink. I splattered gold Posca Pen across the surface and edged the tag in "Aged Mahogany" Disress Oxide Ink.

Day 24 of Karen Telfer's "24 Days of Tags 2020 Challenge"

Well it's the final day of the 24 days of tags challenge, so to celebrate I made two tags!

For both tags, I have used the same colours of Distress Oxide Inks (Tumbled Glass, Broken China, Faded Jeans and Chipped Sapphire), with two Versafine Clair Inks Medieval Blue and Paradise.

For the top tag I have used a Stampers Anonymous stamp set called "Mini Holidays - CMS142".  For the lower tag I used a Penny Black Stamp called "Woodland Wonders 40-356" with a Christmas verse.

 

Week 49 - 52 Week Mini Art Card / Tag Challenge 2019

It is Week 49 of "The 52 Week Mini Art Card / Tag Challenge 2019".  The theme for this week is "A Vintage Style Christmas".

For my tag, I started with a cream coloured tag, using two shades of Distress Oxide Inks, Tea Dye and Walnut Stain.

I used a Stampers Anonymous stamp set called "Mini Holidays 4 - CMS142' in Versafine Clair "Chianti" for the crackle background and the sentiment.  Using Versafine Clair "Shady Lane" for the holly sprigs.

On separate card, I stamped the Crafty Individuals "Spring Time Background - CI-194" music sheet and the "Angel - CI211" in Versafine Clair "Chianti" ink, I aged the card by using the two brown Distress Inks I had used on the background.

After assembling the tag, I used the Lavinia Stamps "Moon Dust" which is a very fine two tone soft glitter to add some gentle sparkle to the tag

Stampers Anonymous - "Mini Holidays 4" Christmas Card

I recently purchased a Stamper's Anonymous cling stamp set called "Mini Holidays 4 - CMS142" and it arrived today, so I had to try one of the stamps out immediately, making this very quick card.

I stamped the camel image in Versafine Clair "Nocturne" black ink and created the landscape using Versafine Clair "Morning Mist" grey ink and the torn edge of a piece of copy paper to create the landscape the camel trio stand on.

I die cut the central image and then mat and layered it in black.

I like the starkness of the card and the fact that there is no sentiment.  The image says it all to me.
