Winnie & Walter Leading Lady - Take Five

Hello again!   I'm back for my final performance as Leading Lady - I can't tell you how exciting this month has been!  I've loved every minute of creating with my awesome winnie & walter goodies.  Thanks so much, Shay, for inviting me to create with your wonderful products!

I broke out one of my older winnie & walter favorites, The Party to create a simple New Year's card.   I stamped the streamers and party horns with Delicata gold & silver inks.   They pop on the black cardstock!  These inks stay wet for a bit, so I let them dry for a few minutes, then lightly brushed over everything, which left a fine dusting of sparkles over the entire card.   The sentiment, from In a Word: Merry, was heat embossed in silver and popped up on the card with foam tape.

A few scattered sequins finished off the panel, which was then adhered to some shiny gold paper I found in my stash!

I'd like to take a minute and wish everyone a very healthy and happy New Year!   Here's to a fabulous 2018!  Take care, crafty friends!

Winnie & Walter Leading Lady - Take Four

 Hello, hello everyone! I'm excited to be back on the winnie & walter blog today -  Happy Christmas Eve-Eve (ha ha!).   I hope all of your holiday preparations are complete and you are able to sit back and enjoy the holidays....but if you are like me, you're still busy, cleaning the house, baking cookies, and.....you guessed it - creating gift tags!   Today I've got a few tags to share with you - and the best part is they were all quick and easy to make!

First up, I created a plaid background using the new Ticking Stripe Creative Screenings.  I sponged on Distress Ink in a dark shade and then rotated the stencil and inked again with a more vibrant shade.   I die cut the tags using Tagged: Holiday Cheer cutaways, and embellished with stamped and fussy cut holly and Dec. 25 images from Happy Christmas.

These next tags were stamped with the detailed tag image from Tagged: Holiday Cheer and die cut, again with the Tagged: Holiday Cheer cutaways.   I embellished these tags with Copic colored images from the super adorable Winter Wishes with Evelin T Designs, cut out with the coordinating cutaways.   They were adhered with foam tape and offset just a bit.  The sentiments are from the Tagged: Holiday Cheer stamp set.

Finally, I stamped several of the detailed circle tag images from Tagged: Holiday Cheer with Versamark ink and heat embossed with glitter embossing powder.   I die cut trees (from In a Word: Merry) from the center of each tag.   I used those trees on the next tag, popping them up with foam tape and adding a sentiment from Tagged: Holiday Cheer.

I hope these quick & easy tags have inspired you to create some last minute tags yourself!   And if not.....there's always next year, lol!!
