Make It Monday #268: Double-Layer Tags

So happy to see Dawn back creating, if only for a short time.
I know she is going through her own health crisis now and praying a solution and decision can be made that will help her to heal.
I used the Tags # 8 for my double Layers.
My bottom layer was a piece that I had made from an MIM a while ago where I brushed on two colors in opposite directions to give it a linen texture look.  My What the Doodle: Ornament was die cut from a scrap piece of water colored paper.

Thanks for stopping and taking a look!

25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ DAY 26!!

Yeah, Tracey has one more day and the sponsor is Stamplorations!!
Head over to the 25 Days of Christmas Tags and see all the amazing tags!
I used Karola's tag for inspiration and pulled out this little stamp a friend gave me from Deep Red called Holiday Candles!
This is a perfect tag stamp!  And so easy to color with copics, then added liquid pearls for the flame and the berries and a little WOS on the holly leaves!

25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ DAY 25!!

The last Day of Tracey's 25 Days of Christmas Tags and today I am listening to Christmas music on the radio!!
I was inspired by many tags from Jilli Bean Soup, Jill's especially touched my heart with the church.  I inked up PTI Holiday Home and die cut the small church, perfect size for this tag.
 
I may just make a few more...that little house with the trees is really cute too!!
Today though I need to finish up a big project...making wooden spool ornaments that I saw last year on Amy Sheffer's blog.  
I am making about 70 of them to give as gifts at our annual Women's Bible Study Christmas Luncheon.  My kitchen is a mess, I must get it cleaned up, we are having our Thanksgiving Feast on Sunday!

Have a great weekend!  Happy Black Friday, I am going to let my fingers do the walking this year...no big crowds for me!
Heart Hugs, friends!

25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 13

The 25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 13 is sponsored by Li'l Inkers!
I used Laura Pryor's tag for inspiration.  I used the same Li'l Inker bells and did a little water coloring on my tag.

This is my last tag for playing catch-up, so tomorrow is Day 25 and the last day of this challenge.  It has been fun, would have been better had I not been gone for 10 days in the middle, but I persevered and got 'er done!
Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

Heart Hugs, friends!



25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 24

for sure I am going to make more of these cute little tags, so simple.
Last year I made one kind of tag for each grandchild and did NOT write their names on the tags (I had a cheat sheet though to tell whose tag belonged to whom!).  These would be very easy to mass produce a couple for each child.
This is day 24 of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags and the sponsor is non other than Pretty Pink Posh!
And Heather is the one I copied!
 
That is it for me friends! 
I am going to miss making these tags...I was so inspired this year and boy to I have a good collection and they will go to happy homes, for sure!
I can hardly wait to see who sponsors the last day!
I still have one more day to make a tag and then I can say I played every single day!!
Heart Hugs, friends!

25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 12

I had this cute Serendipity Snowman Stamp and had to color him up with copics, he fit perfectly on this stitched round circle I had.
I was inspired by Carol's two cute snowmen tags!
Heart Hugs, friends!



25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 10

25 Days of Christmas Tags Day 10 is sponsored by Sugar Pea Designs.
I saw Wendy's darling tag with the Shepherd boy on it and was inspired to use WPlus9 Drummer boy.

 
I have only two more past days to do and then I am all caught up, I have a great collection of tags as I made anywhere from 3-6 for each design!  Plenty to use and some to give as gifts!
Heart Hugs, friends!



25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 16

Muse is our inspiration today over at the 25 Days of Christmas Tags Challenge.
I am using Tracey's tag for my inspiration.
I used Clearly Besotted Pretty Poinsettia stamp and die for the flower along with white embossing powder and some PPP silver sequins.
I cannot copy Tracey's card, so you will have to go to her blog, just click on the purple highlighted words above and scroll down to see her tags...glorious and so elegant!

Heart Hugs, friends!



25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 23!

Only two days left of these wonderful tag inspirations friends!
I hope you were able to play along and get some special tags to put on some of your gifts!
I liked what Heather did for her tags, she used wonderful sentiments and added them to a darling little tag and then sponged on some ink to brighten it and draw your eye to the tag.
I used some Verve sentiments from "Beyond Measure"...so many awesome stamps in that set and great sentiments.  I loved this idea and it goes so fast to make a whole bunch of them! I might go back and make some more round ones, I love their gold hole tag, so elegant looking!
Heart Hugs, friends!



25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 14

Neat & Tangled is the sponsor on Day 14 of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags
 
I saw Daria's tag and new just what to use even though I do not have a Neat a Tangled stamp set like this.  The pole is from Avery Elle: North Pole and the snowballs are from Lawn Fawn: Toboggan Together.  I used a PTI stencil for the background.

Heart Hugs, friends!

Waffle flower is the sponsor today for day 20 of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags!
I used a stocking from Stamps of Life called Christmas2build.
I colored with copics, added polka dots with the Pico embellisher and some BoBunny glitter sugar for the top of the stocking.

25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 15 Lawn Fawn

Day 15 of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags Friends!!  Lawn Fawn is the sponsor this day and I loved Yainea tag, she used the cute little snowmen couple from Ready, Set, snow set.
I used PTI's Tinsel & Tag Snow tag die and colored it with distress ink using a masking paper for the hills in the background behind the little snow people. I mounted it on a Lil' Inkers Stitched circle die.  I loved her heart with vellum that she white embossed with the for you, so I used an old MFT heart die and cut it out of red dot paper and again with the vellum.  I have 5 of these ready to be used!  What great inspiration!
Heart Hugs, friends!



25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 17

Today the sponsor is Birch Press Design for the 25 Days of Christmas Tags on Day 17.
I do not have any dies from that company, but I do have a Hero Arts Layering Christmas tree die and Tracey and Angela both had trees on their tags with snowflakes, they were my inspiration for this tag. 

Heart Hugs, friends!



25 Days of Christmas Tags ~ Day 19

Hi Friends, I think I will be jumping all around to make as many tags as I can before it shuts down.  I am back at current and working my way down to where I left off...there may be some gaps, but I will try to fill them. This is featured on day 19 HERE
It has been forever since I have seen Melissa Bickford. I loved her Concord and 9th tag where she used some plaid paper and a sweet snowflake.
I pulled out a PTI paper pack called Holiday Plaid and a die from Lil Inkers.
Easy and fun to make!

Heart Hugs, friends!
