I used a manila tag which had been stained in a tea and coffee mixture, and added the sweet boy and girl from the Sleigh Ride set. I think they're just finishing off their Christmas shopping.
I used the snowflakes from the same set and stamped some of them first in Coffee Archival.
Next it was out with the Versamark, and some Vanilla White Wow embossing powder over that for glossy dimensional snowflakes. A bit of extra inking makes them pop a little more.
The adorable "25th", the "To:/From:" labels, and the little "no peeking" warning are both from the Christmas Chalk plate... With tags like this on the parcels, hopefully nobody will dare open them before the proper time!
A little bit of paper ribbon adorns the top of the tag, splayed out for extra dimension.
All done... how's that for a speedy Christmas make as the sands of time trickle away?!
