25 Days of Christmas Tags!

I'm so pleased to be participating in Tracey's 25 Days of Christmas Tags today as the Simon Says Stamp Monday and Wednesday challenges teams join in her annual feature!  It's her 9th year!!  Every day, November 4 - 29, she'll be featuring a different company, and today is Simon Says Stamp's day!  There will be giveaways and prizes to be won!

My first tag this year is made exclusively of dies and uses lots of my favorite motifs!

supplies: Simon Green Leaf and gold foil cardstock, board design paper from SN@P Wood & Notebook Basics paper pad, gingham paper from Sunny Studio Classic Gingham paper pad, Simon's Pine Needle Wreath (and underneath) Chisolm Wreath dies, Joy die, bow from Pink Fresh Studio Partial Diecut Bouquet and Bow die, MFT Stitched Tag die, red pearls, natural twine

I first cut out a twig wreath (Chisolm Wreath), then 2 of the Pine Needle Wreaths, which gave me lots of pine sprigs.  They were glued to the twig wreath.   then I simply added berries, a gingham bow, and my favorite sentiment, and lifted the wreath above my shiplap tag. 

Here's a little closer picture.

My 2nd tag was really easy to make, thanks to the Ho Ho Deer Circle die.

supplies: kraft cardstock, an old dp from Simple Stories, Simon's Ho Ho Deer Circle die and Holiday Greetings Mix 1 sentiment, Lipstick Red ink, red pom pom and jingle bells, twine, MFT Stitched Tag die

The hardest part of this tag was threading the twine through the bells!
