I had fun making a tag inspired by Ellen Hutson's Whimsical Tag design … I loved the candy-colored trees, so I went with some paint chips to create my tree trio.

They seemed a little naked, so I decided to *bling-up* the season a bit. I liked her pennant flag element too, so I used some stickers from SRM Stickers for the pennant and the sentiment. I finished with a fun epoxy flower on top of my tree instead of the usual star.
I'm also joining in the Christmas Tree Challenge at Papercraft Star … and the Christmas Challenge at Do You Stack Up (DYSU).
Here's Ellen's super-fun tag.

OK, if there was a prize for cleverness 2012 this would take the cake!!!
WOW! So cool and beautiful! Love your tags – amazing how many wonderful ones you’ve created! Have a nice week-end, hugs, Karin
