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!
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!

These are just gorgeous!!
Both of your tags are inspiring me to head to my craft room (no easy feat on a very cold morning when being all warm and snuggled in bed with my iPad is nice). Big wink. :). I love how you created your wreath...I’m definitely going to try that! Plus your reindeer tag is making me want to shop....I love that die!!!
Love the wreath and the Rudolph. So cute.

Wow! Your tag is gorgeous! The beautiful wreath really pops against that woodgrain background! Love the bow, too!
Oh! I Love the rustic, classic style of both of these pretty tags! I already have that reindeer die cut, now I just need the pine boughs and 'Joy', LOL! You are quite the enabler! Thank you for the beautiful holiday inspiration!
You have outdone yourself. I especially love the background of the first tag and the wreathe.
Lin your wreath tag and the adorable Deer tag are among my favourites. I am waiting for that deer to arrive in my mailbox! Thank you for being my guest today! xo
I love the reindeer one! And the wreath is beautiful!
These are both wonderful. If I received either of them on a package from you, I'd then have to hang it on my Christmas tree!
Fabulous tags!!! Love them!!!
I love tags and yours are FABULOUS....I will be featuring a tag for Paper Sweeties on the 17th, I hope you will stop by and see it then...this is such a fun thing Tracey does!!
Beautiful tags. Very elegant and festive.
Stunning - I am lifting the wreath for my tag for this week - TFS and inspiration!
Such cute tags, Lin. That first one, FOR SURE I'm going to "lift" that one. it has definitely inspired me to create and enter a tag. Thanks for the wonderful ideas, and for sharing your talents. I'm so grateful for SSS and all they do for the crafting community.
Blessings,

I really like your Joy tag...the rustic-ness caught my eye.
Love the rustic country look of your wreath tag, it's so pretty! And that little deer is too cute for his own good!
Love your wreath tag. So beautiful. Also like the simpler tag with the reindeer so cute.
Love those tags ... thanks for the inspiration.
Gorgeous tags Lin, both so very different and both lovely - the deer one made me smile, with his head popping up in the 'window'
