I was working on a tag for a swap and I messed the first one up, just not thinking real good. So, I had to start over. I used a really dark blue cardstock, more like a slate blue, with a sheen to it. I used a cheap white ink pad and a snowflake stamp. I stamped all around the edge of the tag. (Note to self: I really need to get a good white ink pad.) Anyway, I liked how it looked. Then I used my little Snowman stamp and stamped him five times with memento black. Then I used some markers and colored the hat and scarf on each snowman. It doesn't show up really well, but, it's there. I used my white souffle pen to make round dots for falling snow amid the snowmen. I used some of my decorative threads and looped them through the hole in the top.
I also found a round scallop and just hand wrote on it and punched a hole and looped a piece of deco thread through the punched hole. I used the same color box metallic ink to ink the edges of the scallop. I then dug out my platinum colored liquid pearls and used it on each little scallop. I dug around and found some tiny little clothes pins and I took a blue one and used a color box metallic platinum color and it made it almost the color of the cardstock. The whole thing was more or less an experiment, and I was happy with it.
Y'all, I leave you with one last word of the evening, "God loves you, so do I!"
Hugs and be blessed, y'all, in the name of the Lord, Patty
