Welcome to Day 3 of 3, of the Impression Obsession Fall/Winter Die Blog Hop! I created a tag for today, using Deer Snowglobe and Patchwork Holly. I die cut the snowglobe from silver paper, and again from blue cardstock that was already adhered to watercolor paper.
Since the silver layer was die cut from a single sheet, it was easy to remove the cut shape from the paper. Since the blue cardstock was adhered to watercolor paper, the outer edge of the die cut through, but the intricate details of the die did not cut all the way through, making a perfect layering "backing" for my tag. I used markers to add a gradient to the blue cardstock and then adhered the silver die cut shapes in place. A button and twine were used to accent to die cut holly leaves, and a twine tie was added to the top. This is a quick and beautiful project that will certainly come in handy for holiday gift wrapping!
