A Christmas Story Tag

We are finally starting to catch up! It has been a busy summer and fall (so far) with lots of gardening, harvesting, canning, and winter prep. We are excited for things to slow down so we can craft some more. We got enough done this week my mom and I could sneak in some crafting in. We have gotten a few new things from Waffle Flower crafts, This Calls for Confetti, Trinity Stamps, Lawn Fawn and Simon Says Stamp's STAMPtember items that we have been wanting to use and play around with! We haven't got to all of the items yet but we we will. 

So my mom and I were lucky enough to win the adorable Merry "Bookmas" set die cut, stamp, and stencil set from Waffle Flower Crafts and we have loved playing with it. 

Here is one of the Tags my mom made using that stencil set: 

She used:

• Waffle Flower Crafts Merry Bookmas stamp, stencil, and Die cut set
• Price Ribbon
• White and silver glitter cardstock
• Tim Holtz Uncharted Mariner and Shaded Lilac Distress inks & a blending brush
• Tim Holtz Snow Flurries Distress Spray

......and that's it! 

Happy crafting to you all! We hope you feel inspired to create something and if you can, craft with your family and/or friends and make some fun memories together!
