My 12th Tag for Loll's Twelve Tags of Christmas Mixed Media Tag Event. Yesterday was actually Day 12, but Loll has extended her Tag Event to tomorrow Nov. 16th. I finished my tag yesterday, but was not able to post until today.
I really had fun with this tag. Originally after swiping my Distress pads over the Watercolor paper I thought I would spritz with water, but really liked the texture effect on my tag from the ink so just sponged a bit more ink and then inked my Hardwood BG stamp with Baked Brown Sugar and stamped. Then to add more texture I Dry EB with Woodgrain EB Folder.
I already had my copper tree heated and die cut. So just popped up with dimensionals after tying on the linen thread.
Next challenge...my sentiment. After trying different colors, etc. I was pleased with the results. Then just added the scrunched Pear Pizzazz Seam Binding.
Is it possible that this is my favorite of the 12 tags I made?!? I think it is the colors, textures and trees that really catch my eye. Hopefully yours too.
A BIG HUG and Thank You Loll for your fabulous and very, very inspiring Tag Event :-)
