This week Julie has chosen the Frontgate site for the Inspiration challenge destination and I came across this Santa Gift Sack pin on their pinterest boards and I of course was drawn right in by those colors and the theme. And I didn't do anything right away about that but, I let it sit for a while and that whole time I had this old Santa's list stamp from Azadi Earles on the table and knowing that and that I wanted to do something with it, I decided to use it and just morph these tags into what I wanted. So the sack shot was more of a Inspired by Jump start rather than a CASE piece.
Earlier in the week I had attempted to clean up some of my scraps pile by die cutting more little words and such to tie onto projects and so,
The Believe diecut words on these tags came out of that little milk glass tray that pretty much stays there with bits and pieces in it, which is why I tend to forget the MFG info. sometimes they sit there a long time, but, I do remember the one that is tied onto the tag on the left is from Impression Obsession.
The one on the right I want to say is an UK die and I am drawing a blank off the top of my head but, maybe Sue Wilson? Yep, Creative Expressions. The tag and its folded over re-inforcer are from the IO Stitched tag set. I cut those from some SU riding hood red and some dotted scrap of printed paper. The Santa lists were stamped on some just plain white cardstock ( which was too white for me) so, I added layers of Daniel Smith watercolors to them, cut them out with scissors, inked the edges with some DOX vintage photo ink and then added stickles glitter glue over the red berries. I kept the jingle bells and tied those onto the ribbons with some hemp string. The backs of these are plain right now but, I was thinking that the space on the "List" would work for writing a name on. If you'd like to play along with us you can
find this challenge here at SCS. That's about it from me, I hope you are doing well & Thanks for stopping by.
