Fast Santa Tags

Hello.  Welcome.  Power Poppy is doing a 12 Days Of Christmas challenge, with lots of fun inspiration, so I thought I'd join the fun by making some chalkboard style tags inspired by Katie's day 1 tags.


I cut Bazzill Blackberry card using Sizzix Scalloped Pennant die, cos I thought it looked sorta christmas tree-y shaped.   Then I used Power Poppy's stamps from the Action Santa set.  I stamped them with white pigment ink and embossed with white powder.  Then I smeared the white ink around to give the chalkboard look.   Gotta love quick and easy in December LOL.

I decided to also stamp one of the small snowflakes with the white ink around the tag to fill some of the gaps.  I think because of the colour scheme, as well as the subject matter, these will be great for the men's gifts. 

Thanks for dropping by.  Hugz

    Hi Gail, you've made lovely tags. They gave me the idea of chalkboard. They will look great hanging on a gift or the tree :)
