Xmas Mini Bell Tag

Created this Christmas Tag using TH Mini Bell. Used Die-Namics Tag dies for first time that have wonderful stitching around the border of the Tag. Added a brad that is a jingle bell. Stamped Hero Arts sentiment. Added ribbon.

Thought I'd share some tips that you may or not know already. To make the TH dies cut easier I put clear packing tape on the die surface. The tape does not harm the die or harm the cutting; it makes it easier to cut. When you cut the excess tape can be removed from the edges. I use TH sander on the cardstock before cutting with die. This is helpful to prevent tears; especially if the image is small and/or detailed.

    love your festive tag with the Christmas bell! and thank you for commenting on my creations and advice for my camera. I have a little Fujifilm camera, it replaced my old Cannon, and have been having issues with it all along. I am a point and click photographer and have the camera set to 'flowers' which I hoped would give me clear close ups and true to life colours - oops, No! I will have to do some experimenting I think.
    enjoy your day, hugs,
