Funkie Junkie 12 Tags of Christmas Challenge Tag #3

Week 3 of  The Funkie Junkie 12 Tags of Christmas!.  Please check out Funkie Junkie's  instructions, requirements, and guidelines for the challenge HERE.  Briefly, each week, the Funkie Junkie will provide an inspirational tag and then you create your own tag using some element of inspiration from FJ's tag.. The challenge is sponsored by The Funkie Junkie Boutique.

Week 3 tag was inspired by sample tag seen HERE. Who could not be inspired by the Nativity, the golden night stars, NOEL, angels, and camels?  I started my tag with beautiful gold and brown papers.  I cut small squares of burlap and placed the letters for NOEL on them.  The nativity stamp (D.O.T.S.) was stamped on craft card stock and embossed using Black Sparkle embossing powder from Personal Stamp Exchange.

I used Cricut cartridge Paper Lace 2 to cut out ornaments, embossed them with the Black Sparkle, and hung them from loopy brads from Tim Holtz.  Stickles on the angel, the star, and the manger finished off the tag.

Participating in this challenge has already given me so many NEW ideas and techniques.  The supplies needed for the techniques are available at The Funkie Junkie Boutique.  Give the shop a visit - you will be mesmerized by the many products FJ offers.
