The best way to spread Christmas cheer

How can you not love this altered coaster?! 

Altered coastes are so fun and easy to make.  This little photo booth girl was so giggly I knew she would make a great elf.  A scrap of paper, a pompom, and a bit of trim makes the perfect elf hat.  I colored her sweater in using my Distress Marker in Mowed Lawn.  

Usually I cover my entire coaster, but the green stripes worked with my theme.   I just popped on a scrap of Christmas paper and some vintage sheet music for layers.  A quote and a sprig of holly complete her.  

Easy christmas gift is done!

Tim Holtz Tag for November 2014

Rather than doing a tag for this month I did a small holiday wall hanging.  I just got this reindeer die and really wanted to use it.  

The camera didn't catch it well, but the green background has lots of gold sparkles.  The cardboard part has the tarnished brass on it for sparkle too.  

Hope you like my take.
