* Gecko Galz: Snow Play Tag

Hello crafty friends!

At the Gecko Galz blog, we are currently featuring The Tags of December event. Each day on the blog, a tag by one of the talented DT members is featured. 

There are free digi stamps for every visitor and prize packs for one Gecko Galz blog follower each day, so be sure not to miss this event!

Here is the second tag I made:

I used paper from the Timeless mini paper pack for the background and inked the edges with Vintage Photo. Some cheesecloth was adhered to the central part of the tag along with a strip of raffia trim towards the bottom. The images were fussy cut from collage sheets (snowgirl is from Wintertime, sled children are from Christmas Cuties and the robin is from Let It Snow Jewel It) and the edges were inked. The snowball girl and the robin are adhered with foam pads for some dimension.  

Here are closer looks: 

I added two wooden snowflakes, coating them lightly with gesso and, when dry, inking the edges. A star and snowflake sequin, along with a crystal gem, were added on top of the snowflakes.

I typed the sentiment, cut it into a rectangle and inked the edges; it is popped on foam to sit above the raffia trim.
The robin was given some winter white dried flowers and a hessian ribbon bow to sit upon.

That's all from me for now!
