Snow Angels


Tis the season for a lot of things to happen… like snowmen!!!!  And weird weather… and the holidays…. All at once … Oh well… hope that this week all the people that are celebrating Thanksgiving have a wonderful day…
I know that our family is getting together… and we expect to have a lot of fun… 

Oh that note… I am busy getting ready… baking breads, muffins, pies… CLEANING… and all that fun stuff… but I had to take a break and make this TAG…. Yes… had to do this… it is for 3 Challenges…

Simon Says Stamp and Show  use tickets…
Grungy Monday…. Use metal and Alcohol inks…

Of course I had to think about getting all three of these together… and finally came up with this idea… it also had to be comical for me…  my requirement for the week… keep it light and funny…

So here is my tag… called Snow Angel…
On the tag is says…
Happiness is making a SNOW ANGEL in freshly fallen snow…  and that is what the snow man just did… he made a snow angel… what fun he must be having…  better than just standing in one position all the time… LOL…

Okay… so how I made this…  I used some HAC silver tape… the roll I have is about 2.5 inches wide… and I got it at Home Depot… $20.00… and it will make 1000 of tags… that is for sure… I ran it thru the snowflake embossing folder by Cuttlebug… and then used my alcohol inks to color the two strips… one in blues… and the other in Picket Fence!!!  Love it.. 


Then I put some picket Fence Crackle onto some paper…. For the bottom of the tag… and then made my snowman… I used a piece of scrap orange that had been painted with twinkling H20’s… and drew the eyes…  but picket fence stickles all over the snowmans face… to make him glisten with fun…

I cut a funny hat out… and put him together… 
I tore up the paper that I had used the crackle on… and layered it for snow… and then dyed some seam binding tape for the top….
What a fun tag… now I really have to get back to my chores around here… me grandson will be coming… and I have to hide the present I am making for him…  do you think a 7 year old would love a sticker maker of his own??? I  think I will have to buy him one… 

Have a good day… and talk soon… thanks for stopping by… and see you later on this week… like on Thursday there will be postings starting until Monday… and then I will have to do some more challenges…  YEAH…
Love, Light and Peace….Bonnie
