Make A Simple But Beautiful Tag!

Oh my goodness how BUSY it's been these last few weeks! I had meant to post a couple more things here but life just got in the way...
I wanted to make sure I shared a couple of recent creations though. My BFF and my husband convinced me that I needed a few hours away at a crop so I spent Saturday night at a midnight crop. What FUN we had! I haven't done that since August and it felt really good! While there I was oogling some tags that the owner (Michelle McCosh of Everything Scrapbook and Stamps in Lake Worth, Florida) had made inspired by Tim Holtz's 12 Tags of Christmas. I was running out of time, but just HAD to make THIS tag!

It was SOOOOOOOOOO easy! You take a blank white tag and a blank piece of acetate. Pour 3 different shades of red Alcohol Inks over the acetate and swirl them around. Once the alcohol inks are dry, take a stamp and archival black ink and stamp on the BACK side of the acetate. When it's dry use some Glossy Accents to adhere the acetate to the tag. It dries clear so you won't see the glue! Then using the archival ink stamp the word "Believe" on the front of the tag. She had already die cut the wreath from embossed Grungeboard and I painted it and adhered it together. Add some pearls and a bow to finish your wreath. Then add a charm and some ribbon to the top of the tag and voila! You're DONE! Isn't it BEAUTIFUL???!!!
I hope you are inspired to make a couple of your own tags! Keep coming back because I'm hoping to share more ideas in the coming days!
Happy Hanukkah, Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays and HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYBODY!!!
