25 Days of Christmas Tags: Part 3

I got caught up yesterday with the latest set of tags for Tracey McNeely’s 25 Days of Christmas Tags challenge. It’s continuing to be a lot of fun, and although I like some of these tags better than others, I would have never made any of them if not for the challenge.

I didn’t lay them out in quite the right order, because I didn’t make them in the right order. I made Day 13 before Day 12, and that’s how they were arranged for the photo. Nonetheless, I’ll start with Day 12 which was inspired by Melody Rupple. I like her square tags better than the one I came up with, but I’m guessing this one will look OK on the right package. It doesn’t show in the photo, but there is Rock Candy Glitter on the branches of the main tag.

Day 13: Inspired by Latisha Yoast

Dies: PTI “Tag Sale #1,” MFT “Deer Love;” Stamp: W+9 “Woodland Wreaths;” Patterned Paper: Lawn Fawn “Into the Woods;” white gel pen

Day 14: Inspired by Ardyth Percy-Robb. This was one of the most beautiful tags that’s been posted on the challenge. I had no idea if I could come up with anything that I liked. In the end, I’m pretty happy with it, although it will never rival Ardyth’s. 

Dies: PTI “Bookmark,” Pinkfresh Studio “Botanical Branch;” Stamp: PTI “Rustic Wreath; pearls, silk ribbon

Day 15: Inspired by Monica Taylor:

I was hoping a tag would show up that would give me the opportunity to use a new die by Essentials by Ellen, “Prize Stag.” Here’s a better look at it. I know just who’s name is going on the back of this one for the gift exchange on Thursday.

Premade tag, December Daily kit sentiment, Spellbinders “Label 4” die

Day 16: Inspired by Kelly Griglione. I’ve always love this set by My Favorite Things, so I was happy  to have a chance to use it again. This one will definitely go on one of the grandchildren’s gifts.

Dies: PTI “Tag Sale #1,” MFT “Polar Bear Pals;” Stamps: “Polar Bear Pals,” Simon Says “Merry & Bright;” Cardstock: Paper Source; patterned paper: MME “Comfort & Joy”

Day 17: Inspired by Kim Heggins. This one might be my favorite of the bunch, although it really is prettier IRL.

Dies: PTI “Tag Sale #5,” Simon Says “Kate Snowflake;” glitter tape, Simon Says “Sparkle and Shine” sequins

I’m entering the Day 17 tag in the Inspired By: Classy Christmas challenge. I focused on the colors (blue, gold, and white) of the beautiful photo for this challenge.

I haven’t had a chance today to look at the Day 18 tags, but should be able to keep up this week since my schedule is no where near as busy as it’s been the last several. Having a holiday really clears it out. Good thing, since the list of things to do grows longer daily. I’m really ready to decorate for Christmas despite the fact that Thanksgiving is as early as it can be.
