2015 Christmas - Stampin' Up! Santa Punch Art Gift Tags

I'm getting into creating gift tags simply because they are so cute and a purrrfect finishing touch to any gift.  This year I made these Santa gift tags using Stampin' Up! punches and I followed the directions of Mikaela Titheridge.
A Crafty Cat: Stampin' Up! Punch Art - Santa face.
Santa's hatflower from Boho Punch (retired) - Whisper White for pom pom
Petite Pennants Builder - Real Red card stock for the hat body
Petite Pennants Builder - Silver Glimmer/Diamonds Glimmer paper (part punch for the rim)

I added a splash of Wink of Stella Glitter Brush (141897) to make the pom pom sparkle.

Santa's face
Large Oval - Blushing Bride (face)
Large circle from Owl Builder Punch - Blushing Bride (nose)
2 Medium Circles from Owl Builder Punch - Black (eyes)
I drew on the mouth with a Stampin' Up! marker; blushing bride to match the face...
I sponged the cheeks with Melon Mambo to add dimension
I used a white gel pen to add a highlight to the eyes and nose to give the appearance of shine and add life to the little faces...

Santa's Moustache and Beard
2 3/8" Scallop Circle - White
1 3/4" Scallop Circle - White
Moustache Framelit - Whisper White

 and I used a little Wink of Stella Glitter Brush (141897) to make the beard sparkle.

Oh what fun it was to see the little faces come together and come to life... I mounted the cute Santa faces on a Garden Green tag created by using the Ornate Tag Topper punch (137416).  The tag was embossed with Gently Falling and the greeting was stamped from the set Teeny Tiny Sentiments.  The assembled gift cards were given to my customers in their December orders. They are soooooo purrrfectly cute, thank you Mikaela for a great visual tutorial.

Not long to Christmas now!
Yours in paper craft,
