Glitter is my least favorite craft medium. If I ever use it, then I find it on my clothes, on my skin, in my food, on my carpets. During this past weekend some of the grands and I put together some boxes for
Operation Christmas Child then made Christmas tree ornaments and cut out cookies. You guessed it - some of the glitter for the ornaments found its way into our cookies!
So with my dislike of glitter, I was quite upset that some beautiful sparkly ribbon I just purchased had the same evil habit as that of loose glitter. It looks so pretty and innocent until you touch it. This may be the only tag I use the ribbon on!
I love the Elizabeth Crafts Designs Poinsettia die set and wanted to make a few more tags with it.
Erum Tasneem's tag for the 25 Days of Christmas Tags inspired me to add some sequins and unfortunately (!) some sparkly ribbon.
BTW - here is a pic of one of the Christmas Ornaments we made. Fun and easy.

ReplyDeleteI hear you on the glitter. And yet something about Christmas seems to call out for it. Sigh. Your ribbon really does set off this gorgeous poinsettia perfectly on this elegant tag, though. (Put it on a present going to someone else's house! :D) Thanks for joining the 25 Days of Christmas Tags event!
