Christmas tag


I got this lovely freebie from Helen at Ellephantastic and so wanted to use it. So here is my tag. I used black magic core'dinations paper which I tore to show the blue edge. I put a layer of distress crackle paint over the top if it. In between the strips I added glitter and drew some stars. The sentiment is computerised and coloured to match. The bear is shaded with gray and blue. I finished it with some blue and white fibres. I am entering it into these challenges:
1. Ellephantastic - distressed
2. Stamp Something = Christmas in July
3. Our creative Corner - Christmas in July
4. Practical Scrappers - include ONE or number 1
5. Cupcake Crafts - distressing
6. Tuesday Taggers - mostly black

This is so fantastic! I would never have thought to use black for a Xmas item, but this paper with the blue core is great!
The bling-y sparkle finishes it off to perfection :)
