Here's mine:
Used the lovely pine bough from Festive Foliage, and sentiment from Compliments of the Season. I used a whole die cut's worth of my much-loved basket weave paper from The Paper Company. Usually I only use a snippet! I bought the last sheet at our local store and am afraid that they don't seem to be re-stocking!
To add some dimension, I used the true paper tole technique (3 layers) on the big pinecone, and used 2 layers on the little one. I fussy cut those pine needles and they're authentically sharp now! Finally got some rusty jingle bells in 3 different sizes from an online shop called...Rusty Tin!

It wouldn't have been the same with just a snippet of that wonderful basketweave paper, Kelly. I'm so glad you decided to break it out in all it's full die cut glory. This is gloriously country with the gingham and rusty bell and beautiful vintage print on the sentiment. What a fantastic job on those multilayered pinecones and needles. You just rocked this wonderful tag! Hugs
