Nordic Blend Tag

Playing along with my first Tag You're It Challenge after seeing Tracey McNeely's awesome inspiration tag!


The snowflake stripes are from the Waltzingmouse Stamps "Nordic Winter" set.  They are stamped in Versamark, then heat embossed in white.  Blended Tim Holtz inks in Picked Raspberry, Faded Jeans, Peacock Feathers, and Shabby Shutters after embossing. I wanted to use the same colors as Tracey to make 4 stripes, so I just had to switch the green to be next to the turquoise so when I blended the colors, I didn't end up with brown!


The sentiment is from the Hero Arts Stamp and Cut "Holiday Tree" set, heat embossed with silver on vellum.


Added some sparkle silver twine with a jingle bell to keep with Tracey's theme.  I LOVE making tags, so I will be watching this weekly challenge in the new year...so much FUN!
