25 Days of ChristmasTags at Muse Christmas Visions

Hi Everyone,

Muse Christmas Visions is tagging along - haha, pun intended with Tracey McNeely's wonderful 25 Days of Christmas Tags.
Image may contain: text that says '25 Days of Christmas Tags inmyereativeopinion.blogspot.ca'
Our theme for the current MCV challenge is Botanical. I am sure that will come easy to most of you!


I am not a big fan of tags, so this is challenging for me....
It is what it is, right? At least I got the theme right.
I used card stock I had previously used as spray guard and die cut my botanical elements (Papertrey). Added them onto a Kraft tag and splattered white paint onto it.
No automatic alt text available.

I also added clear Nuvo drops onto the berries, to add some shine.



I hope you will find time to play along with us at MCV. Link up your tag as well as link to Tracy's' blog.
There is a lot of prizes up for grabs thanks to all those wonderful sponsors, see below:

Great use of the spray guard card to cut the botanical elements. Love the non traditional colour of the blue holly, the Kraft card and the splats. You might not be a fan of tags but you sure have made a beautiful one here X

What a great tag Cornelia, love these die cuts. A beautiful tag.
I love the infusion of the gorgeous blue tones in your tag, Cornelia. This is very sweet and inspiring, and the colors compliment one another so nicely.
Blessings,

For someone who doesn't enjoy making tags, you made quite a stunning one. Love the shades of blue.

This is so pretty, Cornelia! I love that you reused your spatter guard to make such fun botanical elements.

Cool tag! What a great use of some leftover cardstock. The botanical elements are so colorful, especially the blue. I love that you formed them into a wreath. Great job!

The sprayed colours add such a great sense of texture to the greenery around the delicate sentiment, Cornelia ... who'd have known this was challenging to you ... it's as brilliant as ever! Hugs, Anita :)

Katzelkraft - Stampotique Raven

Hi Everyone, Do you know that   Katzelkraft has aquired Stampotique stamps? This fun raven is designed by Daniel Torrente (#6314). I used an old background from my stashs.  I stamped the bird and colored it with alcohol ink markers.  I brushed distrss ink onto the background and added some pattern with the   Mandala Magic stencil  from Funky Fossil Designs.I used one of the border stamps on the left for more interest.  Stamped the sentiment  and doodled a frame around the sentiment.Added a googly eye to the bird and drew in some eye lashes.  The stamps I used are from the following sets: Spiral Borders - KTZ286,  Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276  (FRANCE) Spiral Borders  - KTZ286 , Whatchamacallit  - KTZ276 (USA) Hope you liked this - I'll be back next Wednesday with more Katzelkraft inspiration.  Thanks for visiting! Happy Stamping! Linking up with: Simon Says Wednesday challenge  - fur or feathers

Some more Christmas Cards...

Hi Everyone, there still are some Christmas cards  I made awhile ago and have not yet posted.... This one I made for the  Runway Inspired Challenge . The inspiration photo is below. I found it a little tricky to make this into a Christmas card, but with the help  of Neat&Tangled stamps it worked....The stitched dies are by Simon Says. Added some Washi tape on top (the headdress) and silver glitter paper at the bottom (the floor and silver shoes) and voila a Christmas card! My second card I made with an iStencil, gold embossing paste, faux pearls, an enamel dot and lots of splatters. The stitched die I cut the Kraft panel with is by Simon Says. I love this stencil and stenciled cards are just so quick and easy to make. I used this one for several cards this year, on of which you can see HERE . http://www.istencils.com/store/products/22-00029 I am linking up this card with: Stamps and fun=Creativity - Christmas U...
