Sparkly Winter Tags - Simon Says Stamp STAMPtember Tim Holtz exclusive

Hello! Today I've got some projects using some BRAND NEW products for STAMPtember at Simon Says Stamp, these ones designed by Tim Holtz! There are also some surprises that were just announced with these products - including a free class from Tim Holtz, and a class bundle with these sets and lots more. I received the products early, and had so much fun creating these tags to share with you today!

I created a total of 4 tags using the Festive Watercolor stamp and die set, paired with Festive Tags dies. I started off by stamping lots of the images from Festive Watercolor using a mix of Lumberjack Plaid, Rustic Wilderness, and Scorched Timber distress inks on watercolor paper. Some of them I lightly misted with water before stamping, some after stamping, and some I inked with more than one color. Once I had a whole bunch of them created, I die cut them with the coordinating dies, then it was time to add sparkle. I added some Glossy Accent blobs randomly to each piece, then smooshed them into a little pile of Mica Flakes several times, which spread the glossy accents, and adhered the mica flakes all at the same time! Great messy fun - haha! While those dried, I die cut my Festive Tags each once from watercolor paper and white cardstock. I love the embossed edge each of these dies gives - so incredibly fun! The white cardstock ones I used my Distress Embossing dabber on one side, then embossed with Princess Gold embossing powder. The watercolor ones I did some ink smooshing with Lumberjack Plaid and Rustic Wilderness inks for a watercolor background. I die cut the tag toppers from Ivory Glitter cardstock, stamped and die cut my sentiments from Festive Sentiments, and then assembled the layers, using foam adhesive for the words, and liquid glue for all the greenery pieces. Finished off with some Ivory Jute String at the top, and a few Dazzling Clear Gems for extra sparkle! Here is a closer look at all of these tags:
