Andrea<\/a> made a sparkly-shiny star-themed tag using Paper Artsy’s Kate Crane KC006<\/a> stamp set. She also used Paper Artsy’s Violet Storms Infusions<\/a> in the background. The tag is one of Dina Wakley’s 3″ Square Tags<\/a> and the stars are cut from Tim Holtz’s Vault Wicked<\/a> die set. Stamperia’s Sparkling Gold Embossing Powder<\/a> added an extra bit of shine.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anna-Karin<\/a> made a sparkly and colorful tag. She used various colors of Paper Artsy Infusions Color Stains <\/a>for the background. The snowflake was die cut with Tim Holtz Vault Winter Wishes<\/a> and the stripes were die cut with the new Simon Says Stamp EZ Strips Rectangles die.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Barbara<\/a> created tags using Paper Artsy Mini 122 Cling Stamp<\/a> and Tim Holtz Stampers Anonymous Sparkle Fade stencil<\/a> in the backgrounds. The cute snowmen are from the Stampers Anonymous set Mr. Frostie<\/a>, and the flowers are cut with two Sizzix dies, Seasonal Sketch <\/a>and Holiday Classic<\/a>. She used Ranger Ink Distress Mica Stain<\/a> in various colors to make her tags sparkle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Emma<\/a> created a sparkly Stampers Anonymous Etcetera Panel for Christmas which is covered in Mica Flakes<\/a>. She used PaperArtsy Jofy Tissue<\/a>, combined with Tim Holtz products including the Stamperss Anonymous Mr Frostie<\/a> stamps and SSS die set bundle, who is sitting proudly in the centre of the Sizzix Vault Festive Wreath by Tim<\/a>, holding his shine gold star, which is die cut using a die in the Christmas Vault Set 2020<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Kath<\/a> created a snowy winter night scene using PaperArtsy In The Navy Infusions<\/a> on the background of her card, stamped the cottage and sentiment from Simon Says Home For The Holidays<\/a> and used the PaperArtsy JOFY PS438 stencil<\/a> with Distress Grit Paste Opaque<\/a> and Simon Says Stamp Detail Sparkle Embossing Powder<\/a> to add texture and sparkle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Macarena<\/a> went totally colorful and used Paper Artsy Hot Picks Printed Tissue pt01<\/a> for the background and Paper Artsy Seth Apter Printed Tissue pt06<\/a> with the butterfly. She glued everything with Tim Holtz Distress Collage Medium Matte<\/a> and added Tim Holtz Distress Mica Flakes<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Meihsia<\/a> was inspired to create a mixed media tag using Paper Artsy Lynne Perrella Cling Stamps<\/a> on the background, and decorated it with sparkle Simon Says Stamp Sequins Hearts and Confetti<\/a> and shiny Tim Holtz idea-ology METALLIC Sticker Book<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Zoey<\/a> used Candleshop<\/a> and Vault Festive Wreath<\/a> to decorate her tag. She also used Paper Artsy green man Infusions Colored Stain<\/a> and Paper Artsy Fresco Finish Heavy Cream Chalk Acrylic Paint<\/a> to add colors to her tag.
