Hello, friends and welcome to Day 2 of the 12 Days of Christmas Tags with Trinity Stamps!! I’m sharing a merry & bright tag combining the Little Tree Gnome Stamps & Coordinating Die Set, along with several previously released products!! I LOVE combining the old and new goodies to really stretch my stash!!

I stamped the Little Tree Gnome onto white cardstock with InkOn3 Blackout Ink, colored him with Copic markers, then cut him out with the Coordinating Die.

The tag die in the Holiday Tag Die Set was cut from heavyweight white cardstock. I blended Tumbled Glass and Salty Ocean Distress Inks onto it using Blending Buddy Brushes. I splattered it with water and blotted it up with a paper towel. I also splattered on some diluted white bleed-proof ink. Once dry, I adhered another white die-cut tag to the back using liquid glue.

Once everything is totally dry, I white heat embossed the sentiment from the Holiday Tag Helper Stamp Set onto the bottom of the tag.

The “To & From” stamp is also from the Holiday Tag Helper Stamp Set. It was stamped onto white cardstock with red ink, then cut out with a die in the Bitty Tags Die Set. I used the snowflake dies in the A7 Snowflake Frame Die Set to cut some snowflakes from white glitter cardstock.

I die-cut the tag from red cardstock, trimmed off the bottom scalloped strip and adhered it to the bottom of the tag using liquid glue.

The snowflakes were also adhered with liquid glue and the excess was trimmed from the edges. The gnome was popped up with foam tape.

Red polka-dot ribbon was threaded through the hole in the tag and the narrow tag was attached with red and white twine, then tied into a bow. I added highlights to the gnome using a white gel pen and Star Dust Stickles to the star and ornaments. A Wintery White Sparkles Rhinestone was added to the center of each snowflake to finish off the card and add a bit more sparkle.

Do you enjoy making your own tags for Christmas? It’s a nice change of pace! If tags aren’t your thing, you could add this to a simple background and it would make a festive holiday card!!
Thank you so much for spending part of your day with me!! I appreciate your time!!
