December’s main theme at Crafts-Too-Challenge You is The Natural World. There are two parts to the monthly challenge and here we are starting twist 2 which is – Any Winged creature. This is sure to be a favourite with everyone
I am still going with the natural tones for my colour palette as it has been a refreshing change from all those reds and greens of Christmas. Wahoo not long now for the little fat man to come a knocking. Can’t wait to see what Santa will be bringing me!!!
Used the flourish die from Crafts Too. Firstly I placed onto the tag and inked over to leave a subtle background impression. The left over die had pieces snipped off which I added to the tag.
The rest of the design team have worked really hard to bring you some amazing inspiration so pop here to have a peek.






I just live this tag… Beautiful… Sorry I have not visited…holidays, puppy and a few fingers bandaged by nipping! So i am pecking this out with the three good fingers left! I love visiting your blog and always find inspiration… Happy holidays and thank you for your kind comments! xxx
Shit send too fast… Loving the neutrals and yes, dine with green and red for a bit…i also love how you used the flourish die… So pretty, will try that!
Oh no… Meant hit send too fast… How did that “s” get in there…oh so sorry! No more typing with gauzed fingers!
Beautiful neutrals, love your Tag Shirley.
Hope you have a wonderful Christmas and that Santa leaves you lots of goodies.

Hi Shirley, I am enjoying the break from the red and green…the neutral tones look so relaxing. Love the texture and how the material looks like the bird is sitting in a nest. And Ann, you crack me up lol.
