I did not have a 'backwards stamp' sentiment so I couldn't use his alcohol inks on acetate technique. Instead - I used the alcohol inks (Cranberry, Wild Plum and Rust) on a piece of glossy card stock, then white embossed my sentiments on top!
I used three sentiments from Compliments of the Season by Waltzingmouse.
I do have the Regal Crest Die he used for the wreath (Yippee!) and the Lettuce Paint Dabber so I made the wreath pretty much like he did adding the pearls and the ribbon. I even had the netting to loop through the top!
I love how this came out! so festive and Christmasy! Between the glossy card stock, the alcohlol inks and the white embossing - this tag is REALLY shiny IRL
