Fun challenge today on the Ways to Use It Challenge... use TAGS! I always forget about using tags, so this was a nice reminder.
My big green tag was cut w/ a Cricut who knows how long ago...just sitting there waiting to be used. So this time of year, big green tag equals Christmas card to me. I stamped colored and cut out the candy canes and attached them to the tag. On the tag, I stamped the dots w/ a green ink first.
The background is 1 image stamp that I inked w/ the 4 colors of Distress Inks and stamped 4 or 5 times to cover the bg. The images are all from DRS Designs and the finished card id 4.25 x 5.50.
Thanks so much for looking! My blog:The Write Stuff. Sorry! I had to delete a bunch of really old posts from my blog & this is one of them.

Julie, a great looking Christmas card. I LOVE the bg DP that you created....if I hadn't read your description, I would have thought you used a purchased DP. Love your tag too, with the shiny red satin bow on top.
