It’s our final day for the 24 Tags of Christmas 2019 – and I decided to play with the Festive Friends set from MFT! Darling little images…I stamped them partly off the tags so they’re just peeking in; that cuts down on the coloring needed, and leaves room to write the to/from!
I used just a few colors to keep it simple….
Aren’t they cute? The snowman doesn’t seem to be “missing” his white color because of the E31 and E00 surrounding him!
And there’s always something that tops off a project for me with a little bit of white pen!

I just love seeing the little animals you color Sandy! Heck, who am I kidding, I LOVE watching you color and create art
Cute little tags that will be well loved!!
Cute tags love the stamps
Love the desert storm cardstock! Super cute tags!!
Simply darling!!
Great tags and adorable images…well done Sandy and I thank you for doing this every year…
These are adorable! Love the cute stamps you used! Happy to see you use the Copics on the kraft paper…. I have been wondering if it was OK to do that! You have me wanting to give it a try!
These little Festive Friends Christmas tags so adorable.
Adore the Christmas tags.
I’ve been watching this little creations for a number of years even though my Christmas in Australia is a little different to yours. We don’t experience the snow we experience the heat of our extreme summer.
These little beauties’ bring the joy.
thanks for your talents Sandy
These tags are so cute, plus quick and easy to make, which is a bonus during the holidays! It’s been a great series as always, Sandy! Now off to see your video for MFT!
Tags are perfect for the young and the old, and I like the natural color tag. TFS!
What? No more tags! These are really cute and look a lot more simple to colour than they will be when I try it. Thank you.
So cute, love the snowman! Your coloring, as always, is amazing to me. Such talent!
Your tags are adorable ! I know a few children who would love to see them on their Christmas gifts.
Very pretty tags! So neat and simple!
Such cute little snowman and reindeer tags. Love them!
Such sweet tags! You make it look effortless!
I dig the festive friends on the kraft colored paper! Such a nice treat to see and I need to try that. I have enjoyed this series and will have to go back and try to create some of my own for folks and play with my crafting supplies! That is a good tip about putting them only partially on the tag, then it is less work and easier for us not as good colorists (but seriously working on it) to ease up a bit. 🙂 Thanks for the series! Truly enjoyed it!!!
Beautiful! Love all of the colors. Totally made me smile.
So cute. Love critter tage.
Great idea with craft cardstock. I love it.
Love the tags, so cute! Thanks for showing the Copic colors you used. It gives me a better idea of what colors I still need to get.
i love watching and learning from you…i am getting better at using different mediums, as well as more courageous…lol
Adorable tags. Love the coloring on kraft and how you made the snowman show up better.
These tags are so cute! Simply done and so adorable!
Very cute tags–I often reuse special tags, because I’m most likely going to give that person a gift every year. I also made fabric bags from Christmas fabrics, many years ago and we use those to wrap some gifts–especially clothing and weird shaped gifts. To help “disguise” one never knows what else will show up in your fabric gift bag–could be a can of chicken soup, box of jello or cat treats.
Cute tags. Those images are so sweet
Adorable tags!!! Love your scene card also!
This is one of my favorite blog series of every year
loving these cute snowmen – great look on Kraft card
These snowmen tags might be my favorite, can’t decide – they are all nice. Thanks for doing the series. I enjoyed it once again.
Gee!! I don’t know which tag is my favorite anymore!!! But I can tell the top 3 cards
1st is the sheepard penguins LOL!!
2nd the unicorns surprise party Al colored in gray
3rd created with lawn fawn stamp Christmas dreams the dog and the cat next to the fireplace
Waaay cute! I am addicted to anything done on kraft paper and enjoy all the hints for coloring on kraft. Thanks!
I loved your tag series! My mom was amazed by the coloring on your Santa tags.
Such cute little critters. I love the tip about coloring around the outside of the snowman with a color slightly darker than the tag. Works great!
These tags are darling and perfect for kids’ packages or just for the young at heart! Love your work.
Super adorable tags, I love having the Festive Friends popping in from the bottom/side of the tag. Thanks for reminder to not stress about the detail coloring … cuz it’s a tag! Although, your tags are works of art and I will keep it forever if I win one. Thanks for another awesome year of tags, I love this series!
Love your work! I’m going to get brave and take a class in ‘20!
Love how you colored these images! Very cute…
These are adorable Sandy!
Sooo cute! I appreciate the time you’ve taken to make these tags & videos, & post. You’ve given us some great tips & reminders. Glad I don’t have to pick a favorite!
These tags are adorbs! Very sweet and simple!
I like these cute and easy tags on the Desert Storm cardstock. The first time I made gift tags, many years ago, I was crushed when I saw them being thrown in the mountain of trashed paper in the middle of the floor. But like others, I still make them with the hope that they are noticed and appreciated before the gifts are unwrapped.
LOL I love the lights in the Reindeer’s antlers! So cute!
I love this cardstock! Very cute tags.
These are super cute! I like to keep tags even though I am sure others overlook them. Love the sbowman!
So so very cute. Love the snowman especially. Thank you for sharing
Oooooo! I totally love these fun tags on kraft.
Quite a simple tag but it is so effective. These will look so cute on packages. I also make tags for my gifts just because I love to make them.
Cute and easy AND quick! Like you, I don’t know if anyone really notices the tags I make, but they do their job, I had fun making them, and I don’t care what happens on Dec. 26. That’s a good idea, to surround the snowman with slightly darker inks than the card base. Works like a charm!
These images are so sweet. Love them on the kraft paper.
