Reindeer tag

This is a quick little tag inspired by The Lollipop Ladies #81, reindeer.  The reindeer (from A Muse) is gold-glitter-embossed and colored with pencil on a white tag.  The stars (from a Stampin Up background set) were clear-embossed, then I sponged blue over the entire tag.

 I ran the kraft sticker (from the Target Dollar Spot -- found it last week; hurry they might still have some) through the printer to add some of my favorite lines from "A Visit from St. Nicholas." (Don't know why, but I love the roll call of the reindeer names).  I added a little bling to the reindeer's nose and antlers. I briefly thought of giving him a red nose but I didn't want to mix up mythologies.

The smaller tag is attached to a larger one cut from 1/4 inch grid card stock, which is sponged around the edges with creamy caramel for a vintage look.  Some sparkly yard and a bow completes the tag.

Merry Christmas to all.

The tag is for the following challenges:

Stencils and diecuts

  I've had the idea for this card for a while, but I finally got around to making it this week.  I started by stenciling the stone fence...
