Tag it For Christmas

It seems rather odd encouraging you to make goodies for Christmas on this  Bank Holiday Monday but nevertheless that is what I am going to do!!

We are all about the tags at Christmas with The Cutie Pies, so somewhere on your cute card we would like to see a tag. Here is what I did...


I have gone a bit non-traditional with the colour here and made a shaker using a tag builder set that has been unused for quite some time!! The sweet penguin was coloured with Promarkers. I was going to stick him on the white mat so that the shaker could be seen but I think he actually looks better on the shaker!! Apologies for the dreadful photograph, it was dull when I took this and haven't had a chance to take another since!!

I hope you will join in and support us and, in doing so, add to your Christmas card pile.

Whatever you are up to this week, I hope it is a good one xx

Know just what you mean Sarah as I always seem to be making Christmas cards for TV when we get a heatwave. It's a very pretty creation and one more for the boxy. B x

Hi Sarah,
what a very brilliant card and your design is ace.
Love the idea of the shaker tag and your shape of the card too.
Yes he looks good on the tag.
It's been a strange day here one min it's bright and sunny and then the next min it's all dull and looks like rain but it hasn't rained.
Lots of crafty love. Jenny L.
