Inspiration: Simon Says Stamp Wednesday (Party Time)
I decided to pair the Christmas sELFies stamp set with the Snow Day papers from Crate Paper (an older collection) for something colorful. The image was colored with Copic markers and I added a few sparkly details using Nuvo glitter markers. I created a tag out of the yellow polka dot paper and I added vanilla sequins on the polka dots for texture. I made an oversize reinforcer for the hole of the tag using a 1" circle punch and I threaded Pear Pizzazz chevron ribbon, tying it in place with thick baker's twine.
For the sentiment, I found "Be merry this season" in a current stamp set, so I embossed it in Aqua Tinsel embossing powder on patterned paper, dit-cut with the Layering Ovals and matted it with Lovely Lipstick foil paper (from last Spring's SAB offering) with a scalloped oval. The card background was die-cut using the Confetti Card dies from Concord & 9th. Because my card had a lot of layers and the ribbon overlapping at the top, I chose to make an oversize envelope for it. It happens that I had purchased both some 12" x 12" paper and the 6" x 6" pad as well, so I was able to find a leftover piece of the larger paper to make a matching envelope.
