Christmas collage tags

If you saw my last post you will have seen how I used up the scraps from my last project to create a collage.

I have now made my collage into a selection of 10 Christmas gift tags, some of which are folded card tags others are flat parcel tags.

Each one has either a star design or a vintage Christmas design collaged on to it. They all have gold eyelets and woollen strings. The tag have all been distressed with Tim Holtz tea dye distress inks to give a vintage feel.

I find collages a great way to use up my scraps, what tricks and techniques do you use?

Thanks for reading!
