Stencil Sunday – December 17, 2017 – O Come All Ye Faithful Tag

Posted on December 17, 2017 by melissadawnlane

Hi! I’m here with a quick post for today’s STAMPlorations Stencil Sunday.

I have a Clean and Simple Mixed Media Christmas tag to share with you. I used the ARTplorations Floral Flutes stencil.

I die cut the tag twice, first in vellum and then in white card stock. Then I stenciled onto vellum and heat embossed the sentiment in gold.

I used CUTplorations Tags #1 Nesting Dies and STAMPlorations All Ye Faithful – Typografia Christmas. I love this sentiment stamp and the carol.

To me, Jesus is the most memorable gift that I have been given.

Thanks for stopping by and make sure you stop over and check out my Design Teammates’ super creations!
