This little tag is going to help me make it through the December PTI release. This will be the first month I have not placed a PTI order on release night. I love everything they are going to release, but am going to force myself to "think" a little longer before I frantically order so much at midnight on the 15th. This little tag using Mat Stack #2 was made to try to create something in place of the new Mat Stack #2 and music background stamp sets being released this month. I decided to use what I already own and stamped a music background circle in Pure Poppy. This is a very large rubber stamp by Stampendous called Music Score. I used a nestability mat cut in Pure Poppy behind the circle and adhered it to the Mat Stack #2 die cut. Next, I die cut a snowflake and stamped it with a snowflake from Snowflake Serenede. This stamp actually fits the snowflake die from Peace Be Still very nicely. I sprayed it with some adhesive spray and dunked it in Prisma Glitter. It was added to the music circle with some dimensional tape. A few extra snowflake stamps I had from past years (Michaels) were added to the ends of the Mat Stack. I tied it onto some ribbon with red/white bakers twine. I am certain the Mat Stack #2 stamp set is going to be wonderful, so let's see how long I can refrain from ordering. I am already starting to go into withdrawals.

What a pretty package! Your tag is beautiful and matches so well with the ribbon. You are not alone with skipping this month's PTI release. I love what I'm seeing but truly must look at what I own and use it! Happy Holidays to You!

Gorgeous packaging and I love that ribbon Cathy! Love the layers on the tag especially the music background :)
Your tag is perfect with that ribbon!Pretty package!
Such a pretty package!!!!! The ribbon is absolutely beautiful!!
Very pretty, Cathy! I like the colors. You did a great job recreating the look of some of the stamps being released. I think you're onto something with waiting to order a little longer. I think I'm going to try to do that more too!
