25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 4

Before I show you my tag for Day 4 with Reverse Confetti as the sponsor, I wanted to share a picture and tell you what I have been doing the last two days.
My granddaughter Ellie as you may know is a volleyball player, from age 10 she has been dreaming of playing in college and on a USA national team (like maybe the Olympics team??!!). She is a Libero which means she is a defense specialist and can go in and out on the court for two different players.  She is wearing white, the libero always wears a contrasting color shirt from the rest of the team.  Her team was first in her league and she was voted the Player of the Year for the Three Rivers League, which is an honor!  They won both playoff games and went to state yesterday and today.  
Today they took the third place trophy for the State competition in the 6A division.
Very proud of that girl!
I am once again CASing Jeanne Jachna with her tag from CAS-ual Fridays.
 
I used a PTI mitten from Tremendous Treats:Christmas and a sentiment from PTI TAG It's #8
I used an SSS falling snowflakes stencil and some DI using tumbled glass.  I found these snowflakes in my stash and decided they would be perfect on this tag!
so there you have it folks!
Go check out the awesome inspiration HERE
Heart Hugs, friends!

Congratulations to Ellie and her team; your pride in her accomplishments is so heart warming! Hope the Olympic dream comes true for her! Your mitten tags...oh my! Sheer delights! I could use a pair of those, as it's -15C here, with the snow falling! Thank you for sharing these sweet tags in the 25 Days of Christmas Tags gallery!
