On the 11th Day of Christmas ...

Hello Right at Homer's, Lynn here with another tag on Day 11 of the 12 Days of Christmas! This has been a fun few weeks and I'm loving everyone's cards and tags! It always amazes me to see everyone's design ideas and techniques and how different they are. I had a blast using mixed media products and a rolled paper technique to create my tag. I took a 6x6 piece of double-sided paper from one of the MANY paper pads I'm collecting and tore it into small strips, inked the edges on both sides and rolled them at an angle into tubes so you can see the inked edges and both sides of the paper. I cut a tree shape out of cardstock to use as a base and glued the rolled strips onto the cardstock in the tree shape. The tree trunk is inked corrugated cardboard with twine wrapped around it.... (you can see the trunk better in the next photo)

 

The background of the tag is a mixture of paint, light modeling paste -for the snow- and glass beads mixed into paint for the sky. I added glitter to the snow, rub-ons and stamped into the sky for more detail. I spayed the tag with Perfect Pearls Mist when done for the final layer of glimmer.
