I have been patiently waiting for the Layered Snowflake to arrive so I could make this months tag. I felt like it was taking forever! I knew I wasn't going to use my layered leaf. Thanksgiving is over...Halloween is over and there is snow on the ground! That calls for a snowflake!
I love this big textured snowflake for November's tag. I love the torn cardboard! It feels grungy!
I did all the inking and embossing for the layered snowflake. I have everything except the transfer foil *sad face* so I used brushed pewter distress paint dabbing through the speckled stencil.
I cut this round thinlit label the used my Alphanumeric I just got to say WISH. Since it wouldn't fit across the tag I had fun and placed the letters like you see. I actually prefer it like this.
*the letters became magnetized and were dancing around my platform...weird*
Along the bottom of my tag I cut and distress glittered clear rock candy the snow flurries cut. Then attached with some tinsel twine. I attached a snowflake charm with a little added picket fence distress paint.
I love all the blues and texture.
I attached a Christmas Word Band along the top with my tiny attacher and tinsel twine.
There, short and sweet...like me.
