Fancy Christmas Tags by DT Stephanie

Good morning Bloomies!

Stephanie here on the blog today with another Christmas inspiration for you, gift tags! You might remember my video on how to make a Bloom Girl tag earlier in November (warning - french speaking eheh!), where I was already starting the background of two more tags. Well, here they are today!

The first one was made with a watercolour paper tag absorbing all the ink from the Color Bloom sprays that was left on my teflon mat, then dried with a heat tool. I added some light paste through a stencil, letting it dry on its own this time to make sure it stays in shape. After that, I added a beautiful piece of Prima trimming in the middle, half-stamped Bloom Girl Free Spirit and coloured her with Copic markers. She was then put on 3D foam adhesive, got bloomed up with some gorgeous flowers and THAT'S IT! Quick and easy, right?!

The next tag was done with Bloom Girl Hope and approximately the same steps as the Free Spirit one, only this time when the light paste was fully dried, I added pinch of colour accents on it by dipping my brush into the Color Bloom spray bottles.

Thanks for visiting us today, and don't forget to check in on our Facebook group to see sneaks and many other fun things about the Bloom girls!

Christmas Inspiration with Sophie Bloom Girl and Lisa

Hi everyone! It's Lisa back on the blog with you today. I'm sharing a card with you today that (of course is HERE), but will also be seen over on Prima's blog as with rest of the Bloom Girls DT. We're participating in their 12 Days of Christmas Cards this week so this card and so many of the rest of the team have cards to share.

I used Jamie's gorgeous Sophie Bloom Girl stamp as my focal point here. But, when I was going through my stash I realized I didn't have much in the way of Christmas paper!! Such a travesty, I know. However, I do have papers from Prima that could serve double duty and once I pulled those out I knew exactly what to do. Yay!!

The paper collection that I used is Free Spirit. And I colored Sophie with Copic markers (I use the term loosely since I'm still really bad at it...Lol!!). Then I knew I just wanted everything else to be in shades of gold, cream, white, that kind of thing. And it really makes the reds and greens "pop" more. It's always fun going through all my flowers and embellishments finding just the right things. :)

Here's another angle:

In this photo you can really see all of that dimension! It's a heavy card. And lots of pretty shimmeriness on it. (I think I just made up a word.)

And a little close-up of her pretty face. (I even gave her a teeny tiny earring!)

I hope you enjoyed my card today, but more so I hope that you got inspired by what you can do from NON-traditional Christmas elements. There isn't a Christmas sentiment on this card and yet, I think, it still looks very Christmas-y. Don't you?

Don't forget to check out the Prima blog for ALL of the Bloom Girls awesome creations! You are sure to be inspired.

Have a wonderful week!
