Hello friends! Welcome to December! We have already arrived at the final month of the year! Can you believe how quickly this year went by?! The first of the month means it’s time for a new challenge to start over at 2 Crafty Critter Crazies! Remember that it is an always “ANYTHING GOES + A CRITTER“. I love adding critters to my crafty projects so it’s easy for me! 🙂
Since I’ve been on a tag making binge, I’ve got some more to share today:
Isn’t this the cutest little bear?! We’re sponsored this month by Beccy’s Place and I have opted to try out this cute freebie that she has offered on her blog called Stanley’s Bauble.
I thought he was too cute and I wanted to try coloring him up in a couple of different ways and even a couple of different sizes too!
I just took my Sunny Studios scallop circle tag dies and die cut a couple of them in my selected color choices of course to match up with his bauble and then I’ve die cut some coordinating circles and pattern papers to match. He was fussy cut out and placed over top of the tag. I’ve added some silk ribbon for both and added a twine bow around them.
Here’s closer view of the Stanley’s Bauble red and black tag.
For this tag, he’s a bit larger than the other an he was popped up over the tag with some foam tape. I’ve colored the bauble hanger with a gold gel pen and then went over the red bauble with a glitter brush pen.
Here’s a closer view of the smaller tag. The light has caught this one just right to where you can really see the glitter brush over the blue bauble. I’ve also colored his bauble hanger with a silver gel pen.
The circle layer behind the snowflake paper was cut from some silver glitter paper. I’ve taken a Simon Says Stamp sentiment strip and cut it out, sponged it with blue ink and glued it above the bear. Since he was smaller than the other bear, I had room for a sentiment. He was just attached with glue this time.
I hope you’ve enjoyed these teddy bear tags today!

These are so sweet. I did it again, I went to the store to buy this year’s tags, like I always do. Sigh. Maybe next year will be the year I manage to make them all myself. Love the sparkle and shimmer of the blue one and the other looks sweet in traditional Christmas colors.

What a cute image to work with – and then the coloring – especially the ornament with the glitter brush effect. They will look darling on a package just waiting to be opened.

Adorable! Thank you for the link to the image. Been traveling a lot so need to catch up on my Christmas cards and would love to give this cute bear a try. And what is a “glitter brush?” I really love all the shine it adds.

Thanks so much for your kind comment Lola! 🙂 The Glitter Brush is “sort” for my “Spectrum Noir Glitter Brush Pen” and I also use the “Wink of Stella Glitter Brush Pen” sometimes too. It’s just like a watercolor brush, but with tons of pretty sparkle in it! I love the results, but it’s so hard to photograph it! I use it often on my colored images.
