Be Merry Santa Tag

Be Merry Santa Tag
I think it is time to start on some Christmas projects or I will have nothing when comes to Christmas! For starter, I made this tag. :P

Tag You're It Challenge #32
This tag was inspired by the Tag You're It Challenge #32 as shown above.

I use digital stamp as I do not have any Santa Claus image in my collection. The Santa Claus image is printed and die cut into a tag, obviously since it is inspired by the Tag You're It Challenge. Then, it is colored using Copic markers.
Close-up: The Santa Claus
Another green tag is die cut and stamp with background stamp. This green tag is then layered behind the Santa Claus tag. The reasons being are one, to cover-up the bleed of the Copic markers and second, to give some special to the tag.
Close-up: Sentiment on the green fish tailed banner
For the sentiment, I stamp it onto a small fish tailed banner. Using the ring enforcer die, I die cut a hole onto the green banner so that the banner can be layered on top of the Santa Claus tag.

Close-up: Glitters on the Santa Claus' clothing and light bulbs
The tag is finished off with adding some glitter to the white areas of the Santa Claus' clothing and the light bulbs. I also try to outline the image as suggested by Kathy Racoosin on her blog here and it really makes a difference. The image is more focus and pop! Finally, a red and green checked ribbon is tied to the tag's hole.

This card is entering the challenge(s) organized by:
1) Tag You're It Challenge #32 (ends by 21 October 2015)

Supplies used:
Copic markers used: B00, B04, E21, R29, R35, R46, T7, YG13 and YR16
