TIS THE SEASON.....tags a plenty

So this month it is all about decking the hall and wrapping packages and Gecko Galz is having their 24 tags of Christmas and guess what I was the first tag featured! I love Christmas and I especially like giving gifts and all that goes into it, so I made this tag to go on one of my packages that I will give this year. Hope you enjoy it and it inspires you to go out and create your own tags. remember email the tag name to Gecko Galz at geckogalz2014@gmail.com and if you are one of the first 10 people you get a free gift from them!

TIS THE SEASON TAG

So for this tag I used the following Products

Gecko Galz Very Vintage Christmas Collage  Set

Chipboard Tag from Gina's Designs

Santa's Journey Ephemera tags by 7 gypsies

Red Fringe by Recollections

Paper by 7 gypsies

'tis the season Stamp by Canvas Corp

Viva Pearl Pen in red

Red and Green seam binding ribbon from my stash

Distress ink in Festive berry & Crushed Olive

Glimmer Mist in Antique Green & Red

Decorative bow from my stash

HOW TO MAKE TAG

I took my chip board tag and sprayed it on both sides with my two shades of glimmer mist and let dry. then took a piece of my 7 gypsies print paper and cut it to a wee longer than the tag and tore the top edge and inked with my vintage Photo ink. Then I adhered to tag front and folded down the torn edge to create a cuff effect. Next I took my Santa picture and inked the edge with Distress ink in festive Berries and layered on just below the cuff and to the right.I then took my two tags from the 7 gypsies Christmas tag collection and inked their edges with red ink and adhered slightly over the santa image at the bottom of the tag. Next I took my red trim and layered it on using red line tape at the top and bottom and at the top glued on a festive red bow and let it dry. Next I stamped with my Canvas Corp Tis the season sentiment stamp and added red pearl pen on the back ground paper. And to finish I tied both green and red bias ribbon through the tag hole.
