Day 8 – 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2021

Hi everyone!

As Tracey McNeely isn’t running her 25 Days of Christmas Tags event this year, I have created my own event using 25 days from Tracey’s event posts over the last decade, as I explained in this post.

Day 8’s inspiration is Day 15, 2015 when the sponsor was Neat & Tangled. They closed earlier this year, but I do have a few of their products and decided to use the Nordic Trees stamps and dies from my take. I was inspired by Danielle’s clean tag – with the subtle ink blending and sequins!

Thanks for stopping by!

Day 6 – 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2021

Hi everyone!

As Tracey McNeely isn’t running her 25 Days of Christmas Tags event this year, I have created my own event using 25 days from Tracey’s event posts over the last decade, as I explained in this post.

Day 6’s inspiration is Day 7, 2011.

I loved that Tracey used a Cuttlebug embossing folder for this tag – I have that very same folder so I HAD to use that on my tag base! I paired it with a sweet wood-mounted stamp by Hero Arts.

This time, I chose Lindsey M-P‘s inspiration and used an older wooden stamp by Penny Black.

Day 1 – 25 Days of Christmas Tags 2021

Hi everyone!

Last year, I played along with Tracey McNeely’s 25 Days of Christmas Tags for the fourth year in a row. I absolutely love this event as it significantly reduced the last-minute crafty stress that I used to have about by gift tags! Sadly, having started this annual event in 2011, Tracey has decided that she won’t be continuing with it this year. But happily we all have 10 years of tag inspiration on her site!

So, I decided to create my own event! I randomly selected 25 days from Tracey’s event blog posts from 2011 to 2020 and will be using those tags as my own inspiration!

So for Day 1, the inspiration comes from Day 20, 2011.

I loved that this tag had so many elements to it – the stamped kraft background, the patterned paper and the cutest reindeer ever! For my take, I used newer products by My Favorite Things and Simon Says Stamp plus a wood-mounted Stampendous reindeer stamp from 2005!

Thanks for stopping by!
