Ellen Hutson's 12 tags of Christmas

Hi there!

I'm thrilled to be joining the line-up of designers for Ellen Hutson, showing off tag ideas with a feminine twist! Each day, the lead designer has chosen a theme. This is what I chose:


It's a bit of a stretch for me, not using blue or red or light, bright green on a Christmas tag, but so fun! This is what I came up with:

12 tags of Christmas


Isn't it cozy-looking? I used kraft and black and different shades of grey to color the tag. And some green, but I did make sure that it was more of a neutral olive tone. All of the images are from Neat and Tangled's Bunny Slopes set, and the sentiment was lifted from Stay Cool.

12 tags of Christmas

I love how the bunny's ear and poles overlap the scalloped rectangle frame, but her skis are tucked in. It's the little things.

Each designer is buddied up with another designer who has to create her own tag using today's theme as her inspiration. My good friend, Miriam Prantner, has made a super cute tag you'll want to check out - CLICK!

  1. Oh Elena! You should step outside your comfort zone and stretch those creative juices more often! Your little bunny is adorable!!! He looks as though he's about to ski right off the tag. You did an excellent job. Step out more often, you might discover you can do all kinds of things you didn't know you can do. TFS and have a warm, blessed Christmas.
