I fell in love with this modern, graphic looking Christmas tree in a stamp set called Rustic Christmas.
First, I used that Christmas tree in a very traditional way, to make a wine bottle tag. I masked off the right side of the wine bottle tag and sponged the left side with a few different shades of green Distress Ink. Then, I stamped the Christmas Tree over the sponged area, careful to make sure that some of the tree ran off of both sides of the green. I stamped the sentiment in red ink on a scrap, and used foam tape to pop it up.
I also had fun using that Christmas tree as more of an abstract graphic element and just stamped a few patterns.
This is still a Christmas tag, but I think that if you didn't know it was a tree stamped in multiple colors, you couldn't guess it from this tag.
One more just for fun, featuring those tiny birds in red.

Joyce, these ARE beautiful! I would NEVER have guess they were from a tree stamp. As soon as I saw it I was thinking "WOW, how did she DO that?" Gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteYou did such a beautiful job!
ReplyDeleteI love your modern and graphic wine tag design! And then even more to admire with your inspired use of the tree as an abstract design element. So well done!
ReplyDeleteOh Oh Oh, these are some cute projects!
ReplyDeleteCool and stylish wine tag with the bold colour blog, Joyce ... and what great use of that tree to create those abstract patterns ... they're so cute! Hugs, Anita :)
ReplyDeleteLove the modern wine tag & they're you go again being so creative with an image! Cool tags, Joyce!
ReplyDeleteOh what fun! Such striking tags and such a clever use for the tree.
ReplyDeleteAdorable set of tags!!!
ReplyDeleteSo creative on your pair of tags, but I also love the boldness of the first with the color only on half of the tag!
ReplyDeleteVery creative! I love how you made the wine tag with the tree stamp - rather modern looking. Even after seeing the wine tag, I thought the little tags were made from bird feet, lol! Now that you explained it, I can see it was the top of the tree. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteLoving your wine bottle tag, the tree looks fantastic the way you orientated it on the Tag. The other are so cute too!
