It's always weird to try to get back into the creative swing of things after being out of the studio for a week plus. It reminds me of the importance of trying to make something (anything) every day to keep that creative muscle in shape.
I decided to warm-up with the current Stay Crafty with Hero Challenge to create a holiday tag.
I inked one of the trees from Hero Arts Stylized Christmas Trees in a rainbow of ink colors finishing with violet for the star on top. I used the Hero Arts Rounded Rectangle Infinity Dies to create my tag.
I used this week's Freshly made Sketch for my layout adding two rows of rainbow washi tape. I finished with a tiny Hero Arts Greetings Christmas Messages and some velvet ribbon and twine.
I resisted the urge to bling-up that tree, so I could link-up at 9th Birthday Party at Addicted to CAS where the code word is colourful (or colorful).
Since I don't wrap gifts, I mounted my tag on a white card base with thin foam for a bit more dimension.
Yay for a creative start to my Saturday!
What a fantastic, colorful take on the sketch! I love that you turned the sketch into a tag and gave it a rainbow assortment of fun. Thanks for joining us at Freshly Made Sketches!
Such a fun and creative use of the sketch! I love the rainbow of color on the stripes and on the tree! Thank you for playing along with us at Freshly Made Sketches.
TOTAL fun card! Those tiny strips look fabulous with your colorful tree! Thanks for joining in at ATCAS
