Tis the season of all the trimmings....
and what better way to trim a gift bag
then with a "Bag Tag"
I love to use a simple Kraft paper bag
with a little tissue paper,
helps the "Bag Tag" POP!
The base of each tag is one
G45's ~ Large Tag Album ~ Ivory.
I traced the "tag" onto 2 different
G45 papers from the A Christmas Carol Collection.
For this tag I used Bah Humbug,
using both sides of the paper.
I applied Multi Medium to the face of this "tag"
misted CCB ~ Tissuestock with water
and squinched it up on the tag
tearing it in spots.
I applied a layer Perfect Paints ~ Bright Gold
mixed with Perfect Glaze Medium
wiping off at will.
I finished off my first tag with Lots of
Petaloo Sugared Botanica Blooms
and Vintage Velvet Dogwoods
Velvet Hydrangeas.
....now onto my next "bag tag"!
For my second "Bag Tag", I used
G45's ~ Seasonal Sentiments and
Yuletide Greetings.
I inked around the edges of the tags,
I then applied BoBunny Gold Glitter Paste
through TCW Vineyard stencil around the edges.
For my flower cluster I used
Petaloo's Sugared Bontanica Blooms
along with a Sugared Pick.
I tucked in Petaloo's Velvet Hydrangeas
along with the stapled Vintage Velvet Leaves
from the Dogwood package.
I added one of the
G45's Christmas Carol Chipboard
to finish off the tag!
Finally to "Bag Tag" #3!
This was actually the first "Bag Tag" I created!
I began by only cutting out one new tag from
G45's Christmas Carol ~ Seasonal Sentiments.
I chose to paint the G45's Large Tag ~ Ivory
with Perfect Paints ~ Rainstorm.
I applied Perfect Paints Dried Cranberry through
TCW ~ Bee on Time stencil.
Then I created in a concoction of
Perfect Paints ~ Bright Gold and
Perfect Glaze Medium....Loving the look!
I used a mixture of
Petaloo's Sugared Botanica Blooms,
Minis and Pick,
along with Vintage Velvet Dogwoods.
The Petaloo Blooms look so BEAUTIFUL when
matched with G45's A Christmas Carol papers!
I can't wait to decorate my gift bags with
these "Bag Tags" and to
see the eyes of the receivers!
That's what this holiday season is
ALL ABOUT!
Wow, these are all stunning works of art. Love them all. <3
