Welcome to Day 8 of the
My Creative Time 12 Days of Christmas!

Looking around at all of the Christmas decorations I have up in my home, I noticed something was missing: our stockings didn't have any names on them! Of course, Santa knows which stocking belongs to each of us. But how will we know on Christmas morning which one is ours?
I suppose I could just look inside to see which one has coal in it. That would be The Hubs' stocking. *giggle*
Since my handwriting is not very pretty and the style of our stockings doesn't really lend itself to glitter glue letters, I made these sweet little tags (in
our Christmas colors, of course) to hang on our Christmas socks.

The tag base is made with MCT's
XL Label Die and new
Stitched XL Label Die. I also used the
Curly Label and
Stitched Curly Label Dies for some added dimension. After die cutting our names with the
Lowercase Fun Dies (
Speaking of FUN, here's a fun fact: I actually go by "Ronnie" in real life), I popped them up onto the banner die from
Vintage Stitched Label Dies and popped that up on my tag. Of course, it just wasn't sparkly enough as-is, so I dotted the letters with my
Star Dust Stickles.

For a more polished look, I added jumbo eyelets to the tags before threading my ribbon through to tie to the stockings.
