25 Days of Christmas Tags Event with Shari Carroll

25 days of Christmas TagsHi everyone! Welcome to November!!!! It’s Shari here with a special tag as part of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags event on the In My Creative Opinion Blog. I was inspired by all the amazing Tim Holtz products from his Christmas 2017 collection.

I started out with Tim’s Distress tags and Christmas Stash 8×8 papers. I’ve covered the tag using some one of my favorite papers from the collection and Collage Medium.

I stenciled some the Pines onto the background with Potting Soil Archival ink, then re-stenciled with Transparent Texture Paste and gave it a dash of Rock Candy Glitter for some winter sparkle!!

These adorable Christmas Paper Dolls are the focus of this tag and I’ve put together 3 children dressed ready for the winter holiday!

  1. The tag is so cute and I love the anything retro. Hmmm, I have to go see if I have any Rock Candy glitter! Love those paper dolls too.

  2. Just when I think that I don’t need any more Christmas products, I see beautiful inspiration like this! Fantastic!

  3. I generally don’t get mixed media. I could never put something like this together without it just looking like a mess. But I LOVE this! Fantastic!

  4. I love your tag, but I can’t get used to using real pictures ( the paperdols from Tim Holtz) of people you don’t know. But perhaps I am the only one who thinks like that.

  5. Oh I love that transparent texture pasta added on your TAG the Kids is a lovely Photo Great TAG you made Shari love that DP too..
    love love love your Tag Shari

  6. I love this tag – reminds me of my family when we were little. Cold Wisconsin winters and tons of clothes to keep warm. If we fell over, we couldn’t get up without help LOL. I’m going to find a picture of the three of us when small and make a card like this for my brothers. What fun.

  7. Love the vintage photos. I wonder if I can use personal photos printed in B&W. Does glitter adhere more to the Ranger collage medium than the Ranger multi matte? I used Multi Matte by applying it with a brush, then poured glitter on it. I felt that a lot of glitter didn’t not adhere to it as it dried. Any thoughts? Would appreciate it.

  8. Adorable tag! The paper dolls remind me of my childhood. We had such fun playing with paper dolls all day long. These are really cool!

  9. Just love this time of year with all the great inspirations for cards and tags. You had a great idea to get me going. Beautiful tag.

  10. Love these paperdolls! I think they are such a fabulous invention. What a great way of adding found relatives to projects for a vintage look. Sweet tag Shari!
