Wow it's challenge #50 at Stampin' Royalty this week and we would love to have you join us! We invite you to Bring on the Bling - Glitter, Tinsel, Sparkles, Rhinestones whatever...if it sparkles put it on a card, scrapbook page, or 3d item! Be sure to check out all the Design Teams samples.
I had so much fun with this challenge and got a gift made in the process :)
Here you can see a close up of the cute gift tag that really sparkles in person! I used a bunch of SU! Rhinestone Jewels and also covered the tag in Vanilla Smooch Spray. The tag itself was made using Crumb Cake Card stock and one of the tags from the Two Tags Die (I cut it down a little so it was not as long). The sentiment is from the Sweet Season stamp set and I stamped it twice using Chocolate Chip ink on Very Vanilla and Old Olive. I punched out part of the Old Olive piece so I could spotlight part of the words (yes I know that I did not line it up perfectly, I realised it after the picture was taken and with my OCD it is driving me nuts! Of course I have since fixed it :) The super cute Gingerbread man is from Jolly Bingo Bits.
Here you can see the full thing. I baked yummy Ginger snaps and rolled them in decorative sugar and I just love the way the cookies sparkle from it! You can see from this picture that I also added some Wide Striped Old Olive ribbon, Hemp twine and a Real Red button to the tag. The jar is just one that I picked up from IKEA and I added one of the Candy Cane Christmas Decor Elements from the Holiday Mini. They are so fun and easy to use, and can quickly dress up a plain jar, mug, mirror, cookie plate...the possibilities are endless!
Have a great day,
Fun Tag. Love the highlighted sentiment. Your cookies look yummy too!
