Snow Angel Dog Tag - Newtons Nook SnowAngelPuppy

Was inspired by Larissa Heskett of Newton's Nook to make a tag using Snow Angel Puppy stamp/die. You can click here to see her tags.

Using Snow Angel Puppy stamp/die for first time. Cut the shaped tag using my Sizzix BIGkick, folded piece of cardstock and arranged the cutting plates to be just below the top of the die to result in a shaped tag. Stamped the image, heat embossed with clear embossing powder for a snowy look, colored with Copics, die cut, attached a wobble to back of image and attached to shaped tag. Added a ribbon.



















Supplies

cardstock/paper: white

embossing: Stampendous clear emb powder

ink: VersaFine Onyx Black

marker: Copic

Newton's Nook: stamp/die - Snow Angel Puppy

other: wobble added to back of image

pen: white gel

ribbon: red

tool: heat tool
