Hello! Today I am sharing two versions of a holiday tag featuring the Tim Holtz Cozy Winter bear. I previously shared a card featuring the bear here.
I used a die in the Tag Collection set to create the tag base, cutting cardstock to which I had applied Distress Oxide ink.
On both tags, I used the Flurries stencil, varying the method by which I created the snowflakes. For the tag on the left, I applied Transfer Gel through the stencil. Once dry, I ran the tag through my Minc with Flock Transfer. For the tag on the right, I applied white embossing paste through the stencil and sprinkled it with Clear Rock Candy glitter.
In addition to changing up the color of cardstocks I used to create the bears, I changed up the sentiment as well. For the first bear, I stamped the Bold Tidings Mini sentiment on to white cardstock and cut it with a Spellbinders Color Block Scenic Scape die.
On the other, I added Clear Rock Candy glitter to white cardstock (with double-sided adhesive), cut the cardstock with the Spellbinders Color Block Scenic Scape die, and added a sentiment cut with the Alphanumeric Bold set, from cardstock to which I had applied Broken China Glaze.
The Cozy Winter set includes a mug for the bear to hold. I swapped out the mug for a present, cut with the Christmas Minis set. I cut the present from cardstock to which I had applied Broken China Glaze and cardstock which I had heat-embossed with Red Tinsel embossing powder. I cut the scarf from these same two pieces.
I really enjoy using the same design while varying the ways in which I create the elements.
Those expressions are priceless!
Just the cutest tags ever! Love those bears and the stenciled background is amazing.
