Noel Tim Holtz deer tag

Hello!

Just popping in today to share a Christmas gift tag.  The deer was die cut (Sizzix) from cardboard and then white crackle (Ranger) was applied.  The edge was distressed using Distress ink in Gathred Twig and Vintage Photo.  (I lightened the photos below so that you can see better details of the crackle.)

Scrap red paper was dry embossed and more Distress ink was applied along the edges the raised areas on the paper.  A crackle background stamp (Recollections) was stamped using black archival ink, dried and Distress ink applied.

The metal letters and leather strip was a dollar store find a few years ago!  I totally forgot I had it.  Glad I find it, though!

How are your Christmas projects going?  Are you ahead of schedule, right on track or do you work better under pressure?  :)

Thanks for stopping by!  Have a good day!
Big Hugs,
Kathy Jo
