Day 12 Tag

I'm up to day 12 of the 25 Days of Christmas Tags! Maria made this beautiful tag:

I have some dies that are similar to the ones she used and made this tag:

I used a blending brush to ink up the background and then added the white dots. I first tried to use some white pigment ink blended with some water, but that disappeared into the cardstock, so I used a gel pen to make the spots. I die cut the manger scene and the sentiment, glued them on to the tag and added the gold and white cord.

I used these supplies:

Scor-Pal Away in a Manger die
CAS-ual Fridays Noel Fri-die
Gina K. Designs ink: Blue Denim, In the Navy, Passionate Pink
Memento Tuxedo Black ink
Sakura Gelly Roll White pen
