Here are the materials that you will need:-
Blonde Moments
Ranger
heat gun
chipboard scrolls
ribbon
off white card
green shimmer card
So now we are ready to go!!
Instructions
1 - ink up the foam of the blending tool with peeled paint distress ink and cover a piece of off white card. Work in a circular motion , starting on the craft sheet for a easier blend.
2 - collect the reinkers, mini misters and pearl pigments that you wish to use.
3 Take 1 dropper of mustard seed distress reinker and add to mini mister.
4 add i scoop of Blonde Moments pearl pigments, and fill with water.
5 shake well immediately to emulsify
Repeat with fired brick reinker and festive bronze pearl pigment, and peeled paint reinker and festive candy pearl pigment .
6 place chipboard scrolls over inked card.
7 spray one colour of inky solution over masks in areas. 
8 repeat with the other 2 colours ( always shake before spraying)
9 heat to dry with a heat tool.
10 remove masks to reveal inked areas'
11 cut off top part of card.
12 Ink up Holly stamp (festive fancies) with peeled paint distress ink and stamp down left side of card.
13 ink up holly stamp (just plain xmas) with the same ink and stamp around right side.
14 cut both pieces of card into tag shapes. Ink up pick stamp with jet black archival ink and stamp around edges of both cards.
15 stamp images (treemendous, a little bit of santa )with black perfect medium ink and cover with Blonde Moments clear embossing powder.
16 heat with a heat gun.
17 dip a wet paintbrush into the pearl pigment powder.
18 and mix into a creamy consistency on the craft mat. Blonde Moments pearl pigments contain binders which enable the pigments to mix with water without the need for sealing.
19 paint in the image. Because we have used clear embossing powder the paint will not stick to the outline so there is no need to be precise.
20 whilst the first colour is still wet add a second colour and blend.
21 paint in all images.
22 cut out all images leaving a slight border.
23 stick all images to a piece of green shimmer card.

What a lovely tag. I would love to have a go at making a tag like yoursusing your lesson- do you have any outlets in Essex for your products. The shop which I know used to stock them, has now closed down.
Hi you, unfortunately shops are closing left right and centre at the moment. I cant think of any one close to you , sorry, but you can always order direct from us. Just click on any of the products in the materials list and it will take you straight to that product in the shop. Hope that helps
Oh gorgeous! Your instructions are so clear. Thank you so much!
Marvellous tutorial. I feel like I can actually achieve good results now (I hope!). Step-by-step is good for someone like me who lacks the confidence to go it alone. Thank you Dyan. :D
