12 Tags of Christmas – Neutrals

For the 11th Ellen Hutson Tag of Christmas with a Feminine Twist, the theme is Neutrals.

I chose Miriam's adorable peek-a-boo double tag as my inspiration.  I used the de-bossed side of the Tim Holtz Texture Fades Poinsettia Embossing Folder on white textured cardsotck for my background tag, then I cut an oval from a piece of wood cardstock for the front tag.

I used one of my favorite MISTI tricks for stamping on my die cut pieces.  I cut out my snowman, scarf and hat from Ellen Hutson Snow Buddies, and then placed the negative into my MISTI.  You can easily position your stamp inside the space & pick it up with your MISTI lid.

After you pick-up the stamp, position your die cut inside the space … and stamping perfection.  I added a little blue marker to my snowman, some neutral snowflakes stamped on the wood paper tag, and finished with a sentiment from Ellen Hutson's Snow Buds.

Here's the adorable tag by Miriam that inspired my design.
