Flutterbuys Creations: 12 Tags of Christmas

Hello again it's day 2 of my 12 Tags of Christmas, today I am going to show you 2 tags that are very easy to do.

This time I used the products listed below from the Flutterbuys Website to make these 2 tags. Some are the same as I used for the first 2 tags plus some extra products.

·      Manila Tags size 6 (sets of 4 for 50 cents)
·                     Ink pads Versa cubes, Distress inks and Versa Mark Pen
·                     Embossing powder - Sparkle
·                     Embossing Folders - Wrapped in Christmas range (20% Off SALE)
·                     Mini Misters with water

· Die cutting machine - just to emboss (I use a Cuttlebug)

Plus

White Wax Crayon
Delicata Golden Glitz Pigment ink pad
Metallic Gold Ribbons in 2 shades

Number 3 "Peace"

My first step was to Emboss the Manila Tag with the

"Peace and Joy" Embossing folder

I rubbed gently over the surface of the ornaments with a white wax Crayon to stop the ink from going onto the background and then with Versa cube ink pads all over the tag until I am happy with the depth of colour. I then rub off the white wax and rub a Delicata Golden Glitz ink pad over the whole tag to make it shine. You can use any colours you like to match your theme each year.

Number 4 "Ornaments"

My first step was to Emboss the Manila Tag with the

"Peaceful Ornaments" Embossing folder

I rubbed gently over the surface of the ornaments with a Versa mark Pen, it will darken the area but I liked this effect, then pour Sparkle embossing powder over the ornaments and Heat emboss. I then rub ink over the tag with Versa cube ink pads and then and with Distress ink using a distressing tool to get the blended effect on the edges of the card. I then spray water all over the whole tag. It's easy to dry the tag off with the heat gun for a quick result. I love the blotchy water marks you get using the distress inks and water. You can use any colours you like to match your theme each year.
