Tim Holtz 12 Tags of Christmas Tag #2

This is my 2nd tag for Tim Holtz's 12 Tags of Christmas. I didn't have a lot of what he used so I improvised. I plan to make my tags using items that I already have. I have broke down and bought a few items like the fuzzy sticks and now some crackle paint but no big item.

I started out by cutting out the tag with the Tim Holtz Tag die. Covered it with scrapbooking paper. Inked the edges with Tim Holtz Distressed Ink -Tea Dye. I used a holly punch in the corner and applied 3 red homemade drops. The bottom was punched with a Tim Holtz border punch (Brackets) and painted red with Adirondack paint dabber (Red Pepper). Then after adhering it to the tag I applied 4 jeweled brads. The tag was then misted with Glimmer Mist (Iridescent Gold). The reindeer was cut using the Cuttlebug and the Sizzix die "Reindeer". Trimmed to fit the tag and applied 3D foam dots. The star was cut from Making Memories metal sheet using the Cricut, then embossed with a embossing folder. It was applied with Sew easy fancy floss (Ruby Slippers). The wreath was made using Fuzzy Sticks (Green).

Now off to finish my Christmas tree and try to figure out how to make the next tag.
