This is for Friday's 12th day of Loll's 12 tags of Christmas. I was honored to be asked to guest design for this event. Sad to see this fun event ending but you have until the 24th to link up. You can link up here: Loll's 12 Tags of Christmas.
This is a gelli print using reinkers and white paint. I use random stencils for this as well as reprint several times. The most fun of these is working with someone else and using the residual ink or paint on the plate left by a friend, thus the blue specks. It always adds a bit of interest. I inlaid this ornament, and stamped and gold embossed the flourishes. Die cut the 25 from Shimmer Sheetz. Tiny nail heads were used to embellish the flourish. The photo makes this tag appear more orange but in reality it is leans more toward a gold color. Thanks for stopping by.

what a great background you created with your gelli plate! I never have such luck somehow! The delicate ornament is so pretty hanging from the thin gold thread! a beautiful tag!

Wonderful gelli plate background - those accidental blue specks really add interest to an already beautifully textured gold background. And I love the inlaid gold ornament and stamped flourishes. All in all, a fabulous tag that I'm pinning for future inspiration!

Nancy, your Geli plate work is amazing, I am always in awe of the end result. I have to check out using re-inkers with paint and I love those left over specks of blue. Beautiful stenciling and inlaid ornament. Simply stunning
