Go Rams

Hello Nomad friends.   52 Weeks to Christmas, of which there are so few left, want a tag card.  Shaped cards always add a touch of fun so I decided to give it a go.  I actually cut the tag card base a few days ago and it, and a few other UFO's, have been hanging out on my desk.  I wanted a nice big image to colour so I rummaged through the Unity stamps for a winter girl.  

I cut my card base from Kort og Godt patterned card using Stamplorations large Stitched Tag die.  I stamped the Unity girl, coloured her with distress markers and fussy cut.  I liked the blue and gold so I cut a Papirdesigns vertical God Jul (Merry Christmas) from gold and blue scraps.  The gold was a bit bright so I used a text stamp and Dandelion archival to add a bit of texture and tone it down at the same time.  I found some gold ribbon and used the Dandelion ink to tone it down a bit as well, which also brought out the pretty texture.  I was gonna go with a brad, but then I found this pretty chipboard heart that seemed perfect.

The double sided card is paler on the inside so I edged it all with brown ink and returned a couple of pieces of the dark brown card at the bottom to make two pockets.  I cut two old fashioned pre-printed tags and slipped them in the pockets to make a pretty picture, but a gift card would probably turn this card into a nice present.

Thanks for looking.  Hugz
