Winter Solstice Tag

Recently,my childhood neighbor and friend,
Jennifer aka LadyJane Vintage,sent me a wonderful envie  full of vintage bits and bobs!

 After ooohhing and aaaahhhhing over my vintage treasures,I set about to design and create something from my cache!Thanks so much Jen!

So here is where I began,if you have a few minutes,grab a cuppa,for there are many photos and a bit of detail on how I created this tag~

 First thing,gathering up pieces I plan to use,laces and rose ribbon from Jen,a vintage snowflake, a tag of course,and a graphic of a beautiful winter solstice lady

 painted my tag with chalky finish paint~for the matte look

 then roughed up the edges of my graphic and tag

giving my vintage snowflake some new life with snow and glamour dust

 stamping,inking and embossing

 spraying some color as well as adding snow and glitter

starting to layer and using matte gel to secure my elements

 adding a bit of whiteness with a hint of glimmer

 everything is added now and here is a feast of photos for you to enjoy!

  ribbons and lace from Jen

 

Thanks so much for your visit! Surely everyone is busy making merry and preparing for the upcoming holidays,so I really appreciate your taking the time!

 I hope you enjoyed my share~see you again soon!

Sending warm winter wishes out to you!
