Creative Belli Challenge


Good morning everyone and welcome to another Creative Belli Challenge!!! Today's challenge is to use tags. You can create a tag or add one to your card....what ever your little heart desires!!
The sweet little Christmas bird stamp called Stocking by Penny Black was stamped with Memento Tuxedo Black and colored with copics. Glitter was added to the white fur on the hat for a little glam. The tag was stamped with a sentiment from Festive Frame created by Melanie Muenchinger for Gina K. Designs and ribbon, silver cording, and a sparkly snowflake finish it off.
This is also for a few other challenges:
1. Stamp Something Challenge - Holiday Somethings.
2. Kitchen Sink Crew Challenge - Wrap It, Bag It, or Tag It
3. Our Creative Corner - to use snow or snowflakes
