Give a Cheer
For the background, I sponged a bit of Tim Holtz (TH) Forest Moss and Shabby Shutters distress ink randomly over the surface of a kraft tag. I put some Ranger Texture Paste into four wells of an art palette and coloured each with TH reinkers - Fired Brick, Brushed Corduroy, Tea Dye, and Pine Needles. Then I spread the paste over a TH "Festive" stencil. When the paste was dry, I spritzed all over with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist Irridescent Gold.
I cut some greenery using TH Holiday Greens thinlit dies from bits of TH Kraft-Core paper, sanding off the surface in some places and sponging with distress inks to age.
From a Brick Red Kraft-Core piece, I cut the verse Merry & Bright from TH Holiday Word Block thinlit dies, and used a scrap of kraft cardstock to place behind the cut-out words. I thought the letters "R" and B" looked funny without their defining loops , so I glued on the little bits that pop out. If you have these dies, you know what I mean...LOL! Now they look more like regular letters. I also spritzed the gold glimmer mist over and fastened it to the tag with tiny gold star brads.
I created a bow from olive crushed silk ribbon, placing loops of metallic cord behind, adding a red metal bell, a pinecone (TH die) and two little gold, styrofoam balls. I recently bought a decorative sprig from Michaels for half price, $1.50, made with these little gold and silver balls - I thought they would come in handy as they were tiny enough for card making.
A pinecone brad and ribbon at the top finishes the tag.
Thanks for spreading positivity!
