Funky Fossil "Pine Cone Stencil" tag

My crafting mojo has been AWOL of late, but I have been reading quite a lot, which has been lovely as this year I've hardly read at all, which is very unusual for me.

I made this Christmas gift tag, using thee coloured of Distress Oxide Inks for the background colour (Wild Honey, Tea Dye and Peeled Paint).

I used the Funky Fossil Designs "Pine Cone Stencil" with various shades of Distress Oxide Inks.

I heat embossed the sentiment, (Part of the Funky Fossil Christmas Small Print Stamp Set) using a Wow! Clear Embossing Pad and Wow! Rich Gold Embossing Powder, heat set and then die cut into a banner.

Finally, I inked the edges in black ink and then added touches of gold, using a metallic gold Gelly Roll Pen.
