"I totally love creating tags and cards as they always make a perfect gift. Even if it’s just to say, " hi", those paints just highlight the beautiful Zella Teal patterned paper." ~ Anita

I like to keep a variety of shipping tags on my desk as they come in handy for so many things. I created these with the Julie Nutting A4 paper pads. The pieces from the Ephemera Pack are among my favorites to use, as I love layering them and, sometimes, just let a portion peek up above or to the side of other elements. This is a very simple way to layer. Tommy says, "Hello", to November. ~ Vero Atienza

"When I saw Sharon demo this embellishment technique in France, I fell in love with the shine it creates! Even though I like glitter and am a bit like a magpie, the shine created with the Sparks and waxes felt like a bit too much for any project of mine. Until I came to think about Holiday cards! Glistening snow and glimmering ice – naturally cards for that season need to have at least the same amount of shine!" ~ Riikka
