25 days of Christmas Tags - Day 24

I came across this for the first time last year - and thoroughly enjoyed it  - and when it came to Christmas I had more than enough tags made!!

It is hosted by Tracey McNeely and you will find the main hop post here
She works really hard to organise this hop and secures many sponsors!

 Each day I will CASE or be inspired by at least one tag...!

I would like to thank everyone who has visited my blog - especially those of you who have become followers, and those who have left comments!

Day Twenty Four showcases Heffy Doodle.

Once again I will have to look in my stash for something similar...but there are definitely some things here on my wishlist - and they are in the UK!!


Anyway this is one of Tracey's lovely tags on Day Twenty Four!

  

I couldn't resist it!!
Here are my set based on this tag...






The sentiment is one I had on my computer from Sassy Studio Designs in 2015! 
I printed it in various sizes and die cut the tags so the sentiment was placed differently on the tags. I masked the sentiments and overstamped with snowman elements from
 Stampin Up's Cold Play using black, orange and red inks.
Finally I added the snowman ribbon.

Day Twenty Three showcases Jillibean Soup.

Once again I will have to look in my stash for something similar...


Anyway here is Joyce's lovely tag on Day Twenty Three!
Just had to CASE this!!

  


Here is my version:


I started by cutting a tag from white card and stamping the sentiment at the bottom with black Versafine (stamp from Stampin Up's Warm Words).
I then found paper in my scraps to cut the trees - a magazine freebie die.
Finally I added the twine...

Anyway these are Maryam Perez's lovely tags on Day Twenty Three!

  

I decided to CASE the one on the left...
what caught my eye first was the deer paper on the back of the tag.
I have something similar... a paper from Decosses Dynamite Doodles.



I found some 'dotty' paper in my scraps to cut trees - a magazine freebie die.
The sentiment is a Tattered Lace die, cut in silver and added to blue card.
Finally I added sequins, Santa metal embellishments and ribbon.

Day Twenty Two showcases Birch Press Design as sponsor.
Last year I was lucky enough to win a voucher to Birch Press and now I have their lovely Issa Snowflake layered dies!

Anyway these are Carol's super tags using layered dies on Day Twenty Two!

  

I decided to use my layered dies to make a set of different shaped tags too...

Using a variety of cards from sparkly white to silver to blues I die cut the three dies - then split the shapes up to make 3 tags. I added each set to a blue backing piece stamped with a sentiment (from an unbranded stamp sets or magazine freebie) and then added ribbon.
