Using either, Pool Party, Balmy Blue, Soft Sea Foam or Fresh Freesia ink to stamp the snowflakes from the Window Wishes stamp set onto the Basic White tags, added a Wonderful Snowflake to each tag with a dab of liquid glue.

The gnomes were added to the tags on Dimensionals. I decorated tags were then glued to a co-ordinating coloured tag, slightly offset.
