Feminine Reindeer Christmas Tag

Hi everyone, Taheerah here wishing you a happy Thursday!

Most of us are probably in full Christmas decorating mode right about now, busily dressing our trees in preparation for the gifts that will nestle beneath their branches. But as we dress up our houses, why not dress up our gifts too? Wrapping paper is a obvious way to do that, but I like to keep the wrapping quite plain and simple, so it doesn't clash with everything else.

How else could we take our gift packaging from simple to spectacular then? With tags, of course!

I absolutely *love* creating gift tags, especially for Christmas. They're the perfect finishing touch and really dress up our gifts and turn them into something truly special. Whether you go for matching or coordinating/complimentary designs, tags can really bring a cohesive look to your gift giving too!

I wanted to create a feminine style of tag that would really jazz up a gift, but not necessarily use something that would be traditionally feminine like flowers. Instead, I opted for the Newton's Nook Designs Reindeer Roll Call stamp set and settled down to play:

Stunning, right?! I love how this turned out!

I love creating 'double tags' - a pair of tags either glued or tied together - it's the perfect way to incorporate additional colours of elements without crowding the design. Here my bottom tag is able to show off a beautiful design with the snow and reindeer without overpowering the look!

I heat embossed the designs on the top and bottom tags with rose gold embossing powder, with the addition of white snowflakes for the bottom tag.

The bottom tag then has rose gold and pink inks blended over it for a gorgeous ombre effect.

A little flick of some iridescent gold glimmer mist and some ribbons and twines and this baby is ready to make my gifts shine!

I'd love to hear what you think of this tag. Is there someone you know who'd love to receive it? Thanks for stopping by!
