Christmas Tag I

I am back with the first Christmas tag in the group photo I posted HERE.

Each is just a little different!

For all the poinsettia tags, I did some combination of zig clean clear markers and oxide inks on watercolor paper before stamping & die cutting the images. For this particular poinsettia, when I stamped the image, the paper moved slightly so I just thickened ALL the lines with a black sharpie then added some copied shading on the edges. The leaves are purely oxide ink on watercolor paper shaded with a gray copic; I added glossy accents to the berries. A polka dot layer of vellum sponged with oxide ink, some jingle bells and ribbon finish it off. Stay tuned, next tag coming up soon!

Hugs!
