CRAFTING FOR ALL SEASONS #114

CHALLENGE #114

Theme is EMBOSSING
and our sponsor is

SCRAPPERS DELIGHT

he prize for this challenge is 3 images from our sponsors store so come along and join in the fun!

I decided to make a tag for my DT project and use a Scrappers Delight image I already had.

I love Christmas and Poinsettias so this image was perfect.

Ive not done a lot of colouringbut I was really pleased with how this turned out.

First I cut out a tag shape, on my Silhouette Cameo, using Kraft card. I cut it out twice and stuck them together using double-sided sticky tape. I prefer it to glue for some projects.

I covered the back of the tag in some Xmas looking stripey paper from my stash.

I always have lots of little bits of left over card I can use for small bits for a card.

Next I covered the front in a green Xmas themed paper and stuck it again with double-sided tape.

I then cut half a tag out on my Cameo in a red embossed card and stuck that to my tag in the same way as before.

I then added a small laser cut Xmas bauble with red and green twine threaded through the top. I placed this at an angle in the bottom right corner, the twine I fastened under the petals of the Poinsettia.

I coloured the Poinsettia using Spectrum Noir pens with these colours...

FLOWER PETALS: 

DR7, DR6, DR4, CR11, CR6

LEAVES:

JG6, DG3, DG4, CG4, LG5

CENTRE:

OR1, LY3

In the bottom left corner I placed a small printed Xmas sentiment.

In the top right corner I put a red heart on a peg and through the hole in the top of the tag I threaded a piece of red ribbon and tied a knot.

Everything I used came from my own stash.

I hope you like what I did and will come along and join in our challenge.

I hope too my project will give you lots of inspiration.

Thanks so much for stopping by and I look forward to seeing your creations.

Happy crafting!
