A festive gin tag for Country View Crafts

 Good morning I am back with my 2nd design team post for our penultimate challenge of 2022 over at Country View Challenges where the theme for the month is "Tags". So for this month we would like to see tags only for your entries.

You can enter a maximum of 5 times and into a maximum of 10 challenges, including ours. As always there is a fab £20 voucher up for grabs for one lucky randomly selected winner to spend on the website.  You can find all the details of the challenge and more examples made by my talented teamies here.

  Remember that when you buy from the Country View Crafts website UK postage is FREE on orders over £20.00 I have added some live links within my post to take you to some of the products I used.

For this make I decided to go festive as it is only 1 month tomorrow until Christmas Eve. Are you ready? I also wanted to make something using the awesome new Visible Image co ordinating dies which are in stock over on the CVC website and the new distress pencils. 

I used the Keep your gin up stamps set available  here

 and it's co ordinating dies set  available here 

with the beautiful VI Christmas Eve set and a sentiment from Sentimental Christmas (currently out of stock but if you email CVC they can get them in for you).

This is what I got up to;

I coloured the stamped and die cut images with pencils from the #3 distress pencil set I LOVE these pencils.

I have done a lot of colouring with the pencils check these out. 

On a white tag I stamped the trees from the Christmas Eve set in green ink and clear empbossed them. 

I then stamped the sentiment. 

I added some spritzes of distress mica spray

and stamped the stars in silver pigment ink.

Then it was time to put everything together . 

Here is my finished tag.

and one final shot;
