Star tags

I used the CAS on Sunday cue
'Die'
to make some Christmas tags
 
 
I printed the sentiments and then used a die to cut out the tags. Then I added the star and a couple of flat backed gems or enamel dots to complete.
 
I took my inspiration from the tags

Pink toadstools

Inspired by all the little things has this delightful photo inspiration
 
I was quite literal in my interpretation
