A Christmas Tag....

Evening all, hope you've had a good day, and managed to stay warm.  The 'Hoar Frost' was amazing this morning....our bungalow backs onto fields, and they always look so pretty when it's frosty. I managed to get a few good photos, which I might use on something or other at a later date.
Anyway, tonight I have a very simple tag to show you.....I didn't want vintage, grungy, messy or bright.....I just fancied doing a very simple, clean-looking tag, and I think this is how it turned out.



I ran the tag through an embossing folder, then coloured the trees with Pan Pastels



I blended around the edges with my 'Splodgeaway' mat...I just wanted the very faintest of colour.
Guess what I used for the sparkly bits.....yeah, Glamourdust !






Hope you like it enough to leave me a comment,
Barbara

  20. Hi Barbara, I love this tag. I have done dry embossing, but I must be old school, because I've never heard of an embossing folder. Well, the dry embossing and the glitter of snow is delightfully perfect. Thanks for your very sweet visit. I am now following you, too, and your name has been put into the give-away. Good Luck!
