Good morning! To say I am happy to be participating in the
25 Days of Christmas Tags event today would be an understatement. I adore this event! Truly. So much inspiration...so much fun...so many generous sponsors...so many prizes to be won!
And I couldn't be happier to featuring products from Pretty Pink Posh. I've been a long time fan and follower of Paulina. I still remember the days of the "10 minute Craft Dash" fondly. It was one of my favorite challenges ever. But I digress...
Back to today's projects! When I first started thinking of my tags I had a plan right away. Two months later when I actually sat down to create them, I still had the same plan in mind. And then, I saw these cute kiddos from Pretty Pink Posh's School Friends out of the corner of my eye, and I instantly switched gears. As I looked at them I realized they easily could be kiddos in Christmas jammies holding gifts, and the rest is history. :)

After coloring Christmas jammies and mittens, I used a fine point sharpie to add a bow on the "package" to make it look like a gift. The Scallop Diamond Tag was the perfect size backdrop. I used a craft knife to slice out a diamond in the center of the die cut and backed it with this cute buffalo plaid. I decided to personalize these tags, and it just so happened that Pretty Pink Posh's Thoughtful Greetings stamp set had all the letters I needed. I masked and selectively inked the letters to build the name using the MISTI. It was surprisingly easy to do.

My second tag is basically the same but just fancied up a bit to reflect my daughter's personality more. (I imagined little elf jammies as I colored this one.) Pretty Pink Posh's Decorative Tag 1 is cut in gold glittered cardstock with the center removed, and then I used scripty letters from Thoughtful Greetings and School Friends to create the name. I added a few of Pretty Pink Posh's Raspberry Jewels to accessorize her hair. It's such a small detail, but it's one of my favorite parts.
I can't help but smile when I see these tags. I had a blast creating them. I just need to make one more for my littlest one. Many thanks to Tracey for letting me join the fun!
