Isn't 'SPARKLE' a fun theme for the holidays! I got inspiration from a couple of sources for my Christmas tag. I have been following the 12 Tags of Christmas with a Feminine Twist 2012 over at The Classroom at Ellen Hutson's. Teri Anderson's tag for yesterday featured twine trees--so cute! And one of my 12 Kits buddies, Marybeth (Marybeth's Time For Paper) recent cards used fun glittery candies. Thanks to both of you!
So I did a tag, with a glittery tree! The die is from WPlus9. I cut out two tag dies and cut the tree out of one. After putting 1/8" Scor Tape around the back edges of the tree, I laid twine back and forth at an angle. Then I cut a mask to cover everything but the tree and sprayed with clear adhesive, followed by a hardy dose of coarse glitter. I added the small sentiment and tied some narrow satin ribbon along with a piece of glitter eyelash trim (a little treasure that I had left over from Marybeth's 12 Kits April kit). The rhinestone star is from Martha Stewart.
Do you have exciting weekend plans? Hope you're having a Happy Friday!!
Thanks for taking a peek,
Sharrron
