I went all messy today with my Christmas tag.
This is a first for me....painting onto a window sheet to make a tag!
I saw someone had made something like this on Pinterest a long time ago,
but it stuck in my head and I let it loose today!!
I cut the window sheet 2" x 4 1/2" and used my scallop tag topper punch to shape the top.
I then mixed some Gesso with some garden green ink
and painted a tree on the back of the window sheet.
I added gesso around all the edges and then using a stiff paintbrush
and some shimmer paint I flipped it so it would splatter like snow onto
the front of the tag.
I stamped the reindeer from Dashing Deer stamp set
using versamark onto red card and heat embossed using white embossing powder.
I cut him out and added dimensionals and adhered him to the base of the tag.
I added more gesso to cover the dimensionals at the back.
When dry I added a whisper white spotty bow.
