Hello Lindy’s tribe, its Kerry with you today. OMGosh!! Can you believe it almost Christmas already? Where has the year gone? If you love the traditional red, green and gold or you prefer the blue and silver tones at Christmas then Lindy’s December color challenge palette has all the bases covered. I couldn’t decide, so I made both…LOL. These were so simple you could bang out a tonne of these for all your gifts in next to no time.
To start, use a tag shaped stamp and stamp as many tags as you would like to have, use a waterproof ink as we will be using alot of water. I have stamped onto a 300gsm white cardstock using black archival ink.
Once you have your stamped tag, spritz plenty of water onto the cardstock and add a small spritz of the TiffanyLou Blue Spray and let the color swirl with the water making sure to leave a little white showing. Dry the tag until almost dry then add a few splashes of the Brushed Nickel spray with the straw from the spray bottle and then dry thoroughly. That’s it!! I have adorned my tag with some snowflake sequins, a sticker and a smattering of microbeads, easy as!
For my red tag, I have used the same method to apply the color. Spray the water generously, add the Poinsettia Red Gold and dry off till almost dry, (this spray has a gorgeous gold shimmer, but its incredibly difficult to capture on a photo, but it is AWESOME!!). Add some splashes of the Medieval Gold Glitz and dry off completely. This time I added a few flowers and a cute stocking sticker to finish.
The Green tag is also done using the same technique, this time adding Ponderosa Pines Olive to the tag and splashing with Medieval Gold Glitz and finishing off with a pretty bauble sticker.
All done! These make a great addition to a gift or you could add them to a card base to make a lovely handmade card.
