Christmas Mitten

Yesterday was spent replacing my desktop computer tower.  Apparently it decided to try to do its own Windows update in the middle of the night and crashed mid-update leaving me in an endless blue screen loop.  I knew the time was coming eventually, but I was forced to just deal with it.

Thankfully setting-up a computer has improved tremendously since the last time I did it, so I was up and running quickly.  While I went to pick-up my computer, I also stopped at Michael's which is nearby and picked-up their glittery Christmas Tags for this year.  I always like to stock-up on them because they are perfect for non-cardmakers to create when when we do our annual Christmas Card party at work (we make cards to give to local nursing home residents … always fun for me to help a big group make cards).

So, when I saw today's Day 14 of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags post, I knew exactly what I wanted to make with one of the glittery Mitten Tags in my stash.  I was inspired by Carol's adorable Mitten Tags.

I started with my Mitten Tag and added a gem to cover the hole at the top for the string.  Next I went searching for some cute designer paper to use for my tag.

Instead of a snowflake, I used a couple of Christmas stickers to decorate my mitten and then finished with some coordinating ribbon.

  1. This is adorable! What a brilliant way to incorporate a ready made tag… into a tag! 😀 And that sweet Rudolph sticker… so cute! Thanks for joining us for Tracey’s 25 Days of Christmas Tags event!
