Retro Christmas Tag

Looking to put the finishing touch on that perfect gift you found for that special someone in your life? Well, this lovely little tag should do the trick nicely!

Today's project was inspired by a retro (circa 1950) color palette that includes dusty pinks and aquas. The soft and pretty colors are accompanied by ribbon, lace, and pearls! Oh my! The result is absolutely gorgeous!

Now, gather your supplies, join me in my craft room, and be inspired to transform paper into a little work of art.



I had so much fun creating this project to share with you. I hope you love it as much as I do! Don't forget to leave a comment below and let me know what you think of today's project. I would love to hear from you!




I will do my best to list all the supplies I use in my tutorials. If I use a product that's been discontinued or has been in my craft room so long that I no longer how it got there, I will try to recommend a suitable substitution.

Please be sure to contact me if you have any questions about today's projects or any of the supplies I used.

Shabby Chic Romantic Christmas Card

Today's project was inspired by the soft greens and frosty whites that create breath-taking winter wonderlands...some of God's most amazing art work! You know, the kind that make you wanna sing!

♫ Sleigh bells ring, are you listening ♫
♫ In the lane, snow is glistening ♫
♫ A beautiful sight ♫
♫ We're happy tonight ♫
♫ Walking in a winter wonderland ♫

I love this time of year! Time slows down and homes are filled with love, laughter, and family. Christmas is absolutely the most wonderful time of the year!

Gather your supplies, join me in my craft room, and be inspired to transform paper into a little work of art.
