Tag Tuesday - Christmas Leftovers

It's a first - I'm actually posting my Tag Tuesday challenge tag on ... Tuesday!!!  My Christmas leftovers are as follows:  two different Christmas cards provided the blue swirly background and the sentiment;  the glittered star and silver cording came from gift packaging.  Visit Kard Krazy and check out all of the awesome tags!

Tag Tuesday - Colors of Christmas: Silver or Gold

Okay, so I'm a week late for the Tag Tuesday challenge at Kard Krazy but being late is nothing new for me!  The tag was finished late on Christmas Eve but I wasn't able to post it until today.

I used a vintage silver paper doilie for the background and the dove and the "Peace on Earth" came from an old Christmas card. 

Card: Deja Vu

I liked the brown, green and yellow tag I made for Tag Tuesday so well that I made a card just like it!

Tag Tuesday Challenge: Brown, Green and Yellow Christmas Tag

After nearly a year I am finally participating in Kard Krazy's Tag Tuesday challenge once again.  Not that I haven't tried, mind you.  I started several but just never got them done!  Bound and determined to get it done this week, I was taken aback when I saw the colors: brown, green and YELLOW???  But it worked!  It really is good to stretch yourself.  Thanks, Louise, for this challenge!

Card: Stars & Stamps Stash Challenge

The Stars & Stamps challenge this week was to use hardware from your stash.  I met the challenge by using some metal buttons, snaps and a paper clip.
