I've used an image from our December sponsor over at The Outlawz Twisted Thursday - Stitchy Bear. The image is called Bah Humbug and can be found here.
This week there's no twist - you can make whatever you want (as you always can), except for this time you'll get two entries into the prize draw for each entry!
The Santas have been colored with Promarkers. The snowy backgrounds have been made with white mist on dark blue paper. I tore some white paper to make the ground and machine stitched around the edges. I used red cardstock to make the tag bases and decorated them with twine. I made each tag slightly different, choosing a circle shaped stamp from LOTV, a punched snowflake and a LOTV tag stamp. These gift tags will be used for gifts for some of the men in my family.
My tags are also for these challenges:
1) Cuttin & Stampin Challenges - #50 Christmas Tag
2) Craft Your Passion - Christmas + Anything but a Card
3) Kaboodle Doodles - Christmas Colors
4) Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas - #155 Whatever is urgent to make (tags)
5) Christmas at Sweet Stampin' - Snow
6) Crafting with Dragonflies - #17 Christmas tag
7) Make it Monday - Anything Goes

That image is a hoot, Pia! But when I look at that giant heavy back over his shoulder, I think I would look pretty grumpy, too! I love the sky you've made and your torn-paper snow!!
If I don't get a chance to visit again before Christmas, I want to wish you and yours a Happy Holiday! Thank you for your support!! Hugs, Darnell

Hi Pia, love your tags! They are adorable and such a great idea!
I do love grumpy old Santa!! I have not got around to tags either, you have made more than me, I keep avoiding wrapping presents but must get to it today, perhaps a few basic tags may get made!!
Oh these are gorgeous Pia! what a wonderful santa and you've coloured him beautifully! I love the snow effect in the night sky… looks really fab! :-)
Hope you're having a lovely weekend!

I struggle making enough cards, let alone tags as well! Go you. These are great tags, I like the pop of dark colour behind Father Christmas. Very nice x
I have to say - Grumpy Santa made me laugh! These tag would be perfect for a few men in my family too!
