  7. Both beautiful makes Trace. Love the dark and moody purple tones on the first, it works a treat and is a great alternative to traditional colours. The second tag is my favourite with those stunning holly leaves and rusty bells. Sorry to hear the boys are still poorly. Your fab parcel seems to have perked me right up as I'm feeling a lot better today but will be taking things at a sensible pace. Hubby is home too so we really feel Christmas has started!
    Take care and dose those boys up so they feel better for tuesday!

  8. Absolutely amazing Trace, I think both of these tags are wonderful. The colours you've chosen for the purple one is so gorgeous, I love the stars on the wires too. And the rusty wires and bells on the second tag really blows me away, I love the way you do this technique, it's perfect! I hope to boys are back to full capacity very soon, so they can run you ragged on Christmas Day! lol Have fun Crafty bud. Michelle xx
