I think these tags will end up being used on my Christmas sweetie bags which I will take to work as Christmas approaches. I’ve used 3D bubble stickers that I found in The 99p Store last year and I am determined that they will all be used up this year, I don’t want them hanging round for another year! (although I have seen them in some shops this year too).
Each little bubble scene contains either two snowmen or two Santas, but I decided to open up a few bubbles and use the snowmen/santas to further embellish the tags.
I have also used small scraps of holly paper which I mat and layered on silver mirror card, quite a bit of faux stitching and a handwritten “Let It Snow”, also mat and layered on silver. The red and white butchers/bakers twine just adds the final touch that brings the whole tag together. Done and fairy dusted!!!
All your faux stitching looks great, but I can imagine how time-consuming that was. Great tags!
ReplyDeleteHi Helen. Thanks, I also have these and have been wondering what to do with them! I had thought about opening them up and just using the bits inside but that seemed a bit daft. Your way is brilliant. I hope you don't mind if I make a few tags similar to yours, just for families pressies. I don't sell anything, just do it as a hobby. I am shopping today so I hope I can find some bargains as good as yours earlier in the week! Take care.
