Santa's Magic

In my childhood home we had a fireplace with small terracotta colored tiles for the hearth. I remember being fascinated that some big, chubby man could fit down the dirty chimney, hardly leaving a mark except for the vast amount of gifts and half eaten cookies he left behind. One year, though, he was not so careful...he left sooty boot marks leading up to the tree from the fireplace...Many, many years later at my own house, the same man left a white glove on the end table by the plate of cookies. Oh, the magic of "Santa"!

CAS-ual Fridays has a new challenge up, which is perfect for the approaching holiday: Create clean and simple gift tags! There is fun eye-candy available on the CAS-ual Fridays Blog as each Girl Friday has totally outdone themselves with this challenge, and you can catch up on the challenge details, rules and prize information there too! We have a new sponsor this week! bossy Joscie crafty flair!

My tag features a lightly stamped background and sentiment from the gorgeous Snowflake Greetings stamp set available at CAS-ual Fridays Stamps. The very tired looking Santa is from Lil Inker's Dear Santa Set and the tag is tied with May Arts Silk Ribbon and Twisted Burlap.
