HOW TO CREAT TAG


 Cut cream cardstock to make a 3 1/2 x 6 tag.  Distress ink all edges with frayed burlap and add an eyelet at the top center.  Cover the lower portion of the tag with music paper from the Christmas Icons 1 collage set.  Add vintage trim along the top edge of the music paper.  Cut an oval that is approx. 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 with scalloped edges.  Cover one side of this oval with vintage silver glitter and allow to dry.  Fussy cut the reindeer from the Christmastime Stamps and coat with glossy accents.  Punch several holly leaves and several green branches.  Add white acrylic paint to the tips of the branches to resemble snow.  Use foam tape to pop up the glittered oval on the center of the tag.  Add the reindeer to the oval.  Layer holly and branches under and on top of the oval.  Color 1 yard white seam binding with distress inks (I used Barn Door, Peeled Paint, and Gathered Twigs) and water.  Make a scrunchie bow and secure it at bottom center of the oval.  Add grungeboard numbers “25” that have been painted gold with gold precious metals.  Add a few pearl among the branches.  Add a ribbon at the top that matches the bow.
