Christmas tag

with all the Tag inspiration out there I'm posting another and there may be more 😀

My background was made last year at Susan's and I don't know which stamp we used. We white embossed some images and then blended distress inks into the background.  I used Real Red SU pen to add the berries, this was sitting in my UFO for almost 12 months and I decided to turn into a tag for Loll's tag event and a few other tag events.

Wonderful technique with beautiful results! Love the dots you added with embossing paste! Think I have to have that stencil (grin). Love the red in the berries against your blue background!

This has a lovely Asian look to it with the delicate white embossed stem and the pretty blue! The red berries add just the right pop of color! Julia xx
