Old-Fashioned Glass Ornament Christmas Tag

Heart Ornament on stand

When I found an especially pretty package of tissue paper amongst the wrapping supplies at Wal Mart, I decided I wanted to use one of the sheets on a Christmas tag. I used the Tim Holtz technique of tissue paper collage, using collage glue stick and then wrinkling the tissue paper on top. For this tag, I used some gold paint on the edges of the tag. I cut the ornament die from grunge board, stained it with Tarnished Brass Distress Stain and then painted it with Rock Candy Crackle Paint.

And here it is on my tag tree:
