Christmas Tags 2008
After making my 2008 Christmas card, I wanted to play some more and I still wanted to use the Inkadinkado images that didn’t make it into the card. (www.inkadinkado.com) I work part time for Sorenson Video Relay Service and there were many many interpreters that I wanted to give a Christmas greeting. I didn’t have the time (or enough double stick tape!!) to make 80 or 90 of my 13 step Xmas cards.
I decided to make tags that were still full of the holiday spirit and could be hung on a Christmas tree. I stamped six of the same images on a piece of cardstock colored them all with Distress Inks and the blending tool. After they were all colorful and pretty, I added glitter glue. When all was dried I cut each image out and mounted them onto pretty Christmas-y paper.
However, in the end I missed Christmas. I slipped on the ice and fell on my concrete steps. I tore ligaments in my sacral (hip) joint and was on bed rest for two weeks. I still got to pass out some tags AFTER New Year’s but it wasn’t quite the same. Oh well! There’s always next year!!

Every year I create a handmade Christmas card. This year I wanted to do a “blue” card. I noticed most of my Christmas cards are red and green. AND I have used a Christmas tree for the past three years. I got a lot of fun and wonderful Xmas stamps from Inkadinkado. I tried and tried to make a blue card happen with Inka stamps but…
What can I say? I play and play and experiment until something happens that makes me say YES!. Guess this year “right” is once again a red and green card with a Christmas tree! What’s a creative girl to do!?!
I made about 50 of these handmade cards. It had a LOT of steps. When I was done, I still wanted to play with the Inkdadinkado stamps so I made gift tags too! (next post!)
