Hello! Today's card I made using a Christmas tag I came across in my stash yesterday! It came off a gift to my mum and it's such a lovely little image, decopatched, velvety material and lovely glittery snow it was begging me to be re used!  I took the glitter ribbon off the tag and used it lower down on the card, added twine and mini bells. Papers - mag freebies White tag - Tesco  LOTV sentiment stamp Pearls - hobbycraft So a fairly thrifty and simple make today! Perfect :-) Lucy x Challenges: Allsorts - Christmas Crafty Ribbons - Tags with ribbon Bunny Zoes - Animals Country View - Sparkle & Shine Christmas Cards all year round - Embelish it Divas by Design - Anything Goes Crafty Hazelnuts Patterned Paper Sister Act - Anything Goes Pixies Snippets Playground
