For my project today, I made a simple but fun tag using the Winter Trinkets set. It was stamped with Berrylicious ink from MFT, and using several different MFT Die-namics(Tag You're It, Snowflakes Trio, Circle Stax, and Fancy Flourishes) I created a fun little gift tag. The snowflakes were made using Bubblegum cardstock, and my flourish was made using Sour Apple. To finish, I did some paper piercing, added a Berrylicious bow with some twine, and finished off with a few brads.
