Joy to the World Tag

First of all, "Thank You" for all of the kind words about the Artful Village.  It really was an easy project...with a couple of Sizzix Alterations dies and pile of junk I know anyone could do it.  A great project to start work on in the springtime to get ready for 2013!

Today, my contribution to...
Ellen Hutson's 
12 Tags of Christmas
with a feminine twist 
is in the CLASSroom so click on the link here to view the tutorial.  As usual, there's a ton of step by step pictures...lol.  I guess it wouldn't be me if I didn't photograph every step, right?  Thanks to Ellen for saying, "that's great, the more pictures the better".  She is ALWAYS so positive!  Hope you enjoy this one...I love it.

There are still 3 more days of tags in the CLASSroom so be sure to stop by each day.  Remember, there is also a place to post your tags inspired by the 12 tags series to win a $150 gift certificate (and who couldn't use that?).

Cheers for a great Sunday!

    Well- I am secretly thinking you made this gorgeous tag with me in mind. I am convinced that you have an endless supply of antique pearls. The ribbon is sooooo wonderful. I am thrilled with the option of tinting to suit project. Thank you for sharing and the super tutorial - Merry, merry.

      joy, I sure love that crinkle ribbon for that very reason. One roll is 10 yards...I usually make a yard at a time so that gives me a lot of choices.
      sending good wishes your way!

    Just pure loveliness here....So shabby and vintage and very, very feminine. I love that you incorporated text from old books...and the bow is perfection. Love, love, love!
