Guest Designing for Twelve Tags of Christmas

I was so honored when Loll of Stamping with Loll, 
asked me to be a Guest Designer for her
Twelve Tags of Christmas Challenge.


It was a great excuse to order these tag dies that I'd had my eye on.


I really went for the shine!

Since Loll asked us to use mixed media on our tags,
I had an excuse to order this wonderful stencil too.

So I've stamped, heat embossed, stenciled, die cut, punched and then
 added bling for extra dimension and texture.

* For this event, Mixed Media is defined as stamps + ink, plus two other elements which add texture and/or dimension.
The inspiration tags by the designers will be showcased from the 4th-15th of November and the linky will remain open until the 22nd November so it gives you plenty of time to enter.

Here is a list of prizes! 

Winner - $40 gift certificate from STAMPlorations
Top Three - $20 gift certificate each from STAMPlorations
Random Draw - $20 gift certificate from Happy Little Stampers
Random Draw - One Christmas stamp set from Dee's Artsy Impressions
Thanks for the visit.

Enjoy!
    **********

    Absolutely STUNNING Bonnie, oh my goodness!!! Precious in every way, love the Pinpoint tags, they are so beautiful and now, you gave me an excuse to order them, LOL!! The Festival of Trees from SU are so darling, I've been putting off getting that set but it's going on the next order.
    Thank you for sharing this amazing tag that will adorn any gift, as a matter of fact, the tag is a gift in itself, would look gorgeous hanging from the Christmas Tree.
    Hugs,

    This is so luxurious Bonnie and I love the trees with the gems and a gorgeous stitched really ornate tag. I am sorry I have not been able to keep pace with your fabulous tags but I have looked back and they are all so different. The blue with the snowflakes is another beauty and the fun Father Christmas as well as that pretty snow scene. Wonderful! x
