Christmas Stuff!

 My final project for the October release at:


This stencil is called Mid Century Christmas Tree (don't forget to use code JennFan10 for 10% off at the shop) - I made a simple little tag:


I used the reverse stencil technique for this after I had used the stencil traditionally on another project. I love the soft, watercolor look you get when you do this. I die cut the tag, sponged the edges with green ink, and added a little Merry Christmas sticker from a sticker book from Funky Fossil. 

I'd like to enter my tag into the following challenges:

Just Us Girls #846 - Stencil Week

CAS on Friday #345 - Use a Tag

Stencil Fun October - AG/Optional Use Orange

Crafter's Cafe #335 - AG/Optional Tags

....................................

One more Christmas project to share today - I had so much fun making this for the:

Christmas Kickstart #115 - Goth Christmas


I used papers from Unity Stamp Co., a deckled edge circle nesting die from Mama Elephant, and some miscellaneous dies for embellies. My goth girl (shut up Jeremy) is an older rubber stamp from The Greeting Farm called Tuesday Premiere (all of their stamps are my favorites but this one has a special place in my heart - I love her pretty, gothic, IDGAF look.... LOL), stamped with Versafine Black and embossed with clear embossing powder, colored with Copics & Stickles glitter, then fussy cut. I used some sparkly white Fluffy Stuff on her boa attached her with foam tape. Sentiment is from the Typewriter Christmas set at Ink Road Stamps. I added a little ribbon tag from my ribbon scrap stash and those little red brads are also from my stash - wicked old - LOL - from when I was a Stampin' Up! demonstrator back in the early 2000's....

My husband totally made fun of me and said I just don't know how to do goth, I have to make it cute, but WHATEVER! What does he know?!?  I think she's goth! LOL  Anyway, I'd like to enter this into the following challenges as well:

Passion for Markers - Use Your Favorite Digi or Stamp

Shopping Our Stash #585 - If the Shoe Fits

Creative Inspirations - Anything Goes

Tic Tac Toe #304 - I used heat embossing, glitter, and layers

  1. I think your little Goth girl is wonderful - and delightfully sweet! Who says goth always needs to be dark and moody! Certainly not you - or me! Thank you so much for joining Jo and me at Christmas Kickstart.
