Friends of Unity Blog Hop - Retro/Vintage

I cannot believe it's the beginning of December! We had the longest fall ever here (no snow until 2 weeks ago - INSANE!) Usually we are digging out around Halloween. 

Now that the white stuff arrived it does get you in the Christmas mood - and I have a fantastic little design I whipped up for our Friends of Unity Blog Hop this month! After all - this is even more special because it's our 4th Anniversary!  I love Eileen's retro design - adorable! (If you missed it - you can go back and check it out here.) 

This month we are kickin it old school - our theme is Retro/Vintage! 

I just love making Christmas tags - and when my special Unity order didn't show up in time for this month's Hop - I dug into my stash and found something that was perfect! 




I just love this TIny tags of Christmas set - and those images in it are VERY vintage.... a little childhood nostalgia... I had one of those "jack-in-the-box" toys. Does that date me? lol 

I pulled out some old designer paper from my stash and got to work - I used some Stampin Up punches (tag toppers and a label punch) to create this fun set of 6 tags... inking them up and even pulling out a couple brads from my stash.... (remember them!? - life of a Hoarder!) 







It was so fun whipping these up for our Blog anniversary! Next up is April - check out her design here


Peace, Love n' Ink

    Your tags are super cool. I can look at them forever. The shapes and pattern papers, strings and fonts, etc! I love brads and have tons of them. I love the adorable holly stamp! Thanks for the inspiration.

    These are all so darling! I think the one with the
    holly berries is totally retro looking (IMO). Merry
    Christmas to you & yours!

    Beautiful tags! I don’t make tags often as I’m always stumped on ideas. This inspired me to give it a try again!
