Twelve Tags of Christmas - Final Instalment !

Good Morning !!! As promised - here are the final three tags ! I have really enjoyed making these and thanks for all your lovely comments ! These three are my personal favs especially the forest of trees one which was inspired by a tag I saw on Pinterest ages ago ( apologies for not knowing the original designer ) I tried to emulate the effect by running the white ink pad over the whole tag and then stamping layers of trees in shades of green and then adding more white when it had dried. After that I stamped the trees again - I love the way it turned out but the photo doesn't really show it at it's best ! The snow is made with white embossing powder and a layer of heat and stick powder topped with dazzling diamonds ! It looks real and so twinkly !!! 





The little dove was heat embossed in pewter - it's gorgeous - it comes from the set Calm Christmas which also includes two beautiful sentiments ! By the way - when you trim out this dove and just at the last moment the foliage drops off - don't fret - just replace it with a piece punched from the bird builder punch - no one will notice !!! 
Happy crafting !
