and a repeat...three more tags

Today I have three more tags to share with you then I will show you the completed canvas tomorrow...

BTW did you know that there are a lot of different tag sizes available precut to purchase?  I didn't but I found a site that sells tags in bulk and they have this graph showing all the different sizes available and all the different weights of tags.  I don't know if I will purchase any since I already have all 3 Tim Holtz tag dies for the #2, #5, and #8 tags and cut them myself most of the time. To check out the graph or purchasing go to xpresstags.com

Here are the tags I am sharing with you today:

 

Tag 1 is a small #2 size tag that I stamped with a stamp from the Holiday Holidays 3 from Tim Holtz (TH).  It is a Christmas Carol...appropriate I think.  The stamping and distressing was done in Vintage Photo.  The wreath is cut out with TH Movers and Shapers mini wreath and bow dies.   I used the old Martha Stewart branch punch (that I have had forever) to punch a lot of branches then I glued them to the wreath.  The bow is cut from red card stock and I used red Stickles on it and let it dry then covered it with Glossy Accents.  Some red Stickles were dotted around the wreath to simulate berries.   

Tag 2 is a #5 tag that I ran through the TH pine branch embossing folder then inked it with Iced Spruce and distressed it with Vintage Photo.  The pine branches and pine cones are made with the Tattered Pine cone die then I iced them with Lace Stickles and a red bow.  I twisted up a couple pipe cleaners to get a candy cane for the tag canvas.

  

Tag 3 is a #8 tag that I covered with a piece of Holidays Past seasonal paper from TH!  I then distressed around the edges in Pine Needles and Festive Berries.   The poinsettia is made with the Tattered Poinsettia die and pages from a dictionary that I distressed with the Festive Berries.  The leaves were run through a crimper and distressed with the Vintage Photo.and Noel die was used on glitter card stock.  I finished it up with a velvet brad in the center of the poinsettia.  All card stock used is from Stampin'Up! including that used to make the manila tags.
