12 tags of christmas tag 5

Hello lovelies! Did you have a good Halloween? We had lots of Halloween fun - I know some of you have seen the pictures on facebook but for those that haven't here's what we looked like for trick or treating!


My Lucy enjoyed being made up to go with her vampire costume! So many people said how they wouldn't have recognised her!


Penny decided to vamp it up with the actions rather than the make up!!!


I enjoyed dressing up with my spider headband!!! Lol! You've got to laugh! Sadly the village party was cancelled but trick or treating was very successful and the girls really enjoyed that - then they enjoyed watching strictly too! A good night I think!

Anyway - back to today's post - my 5th tag for the 12 tags of christmas sponsored by the thefunkiejunkie boutique. You can find Linda's post 
here. I took inspiration from the green, the trees and the gold embossing. Here's what I did:


I used the treescape stamp from Tim Holtz and repeat stamped it using versamark and gold embossing powder.


Next I used evergreen bough and mowed lawn in the background then added the diecut words from Tim holtz.


I then added a couple of diecut branches from tim holtz then a pine cone from an old my craft studio set I found i had! My tattered pinecone is the jumbo one and looked too big.

I would like to enter the following challenges:




I hope you have a great Monday - Enjoy whatever you're doing.

Big hugs

Rachel xx
