Christmas Sprig Tree

From Day 15 of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags, I fell in love with Tracey McNeely's Christmas Tree Tag.

I loved the unexpected colors and how they contrasted perfectly with the dark sentiment.

I used one of the sets of leaves from Penny Black's Christmas Sprigs and stamped it in various sherbet colors on white cardstock.

I die cut my tree and then added three Holiday Word Sentiment Stickers and some ribbon.  I photographed my tag before I attached it to the card base … then somehow I managed to lose my photo card (still can't find it).  How I lose things on a 5 foot walk, I have no idea … so I took another picture with my phone and called it good.  Thanks Tracey for the inspiration.

I'm also linking-up at the Penny Black Saturday Challenge where the optional theme is Tags.  It's also perfect for the Penny Black and More Challenge where the theme is Christmas.

  2. i recognize the lovely sprigs and they look so pretty in the colours you’ve used! i also like how you incorporate your tags onto cards. if you figure out how you lose things on a 5 minute walk, please let me know. 🙂 i keep vowing to spray paint every tool in neon colours. so glad you joined us at the penny Black and More challenge.
