Let's Make Babushka Nesting Tags - Christmas Version

Want some Christmas fun? Let's make the very interactive, Babushka Nesting Tags!
Welcome to day 11 of the ab fab collab, #ChristmasCraftOff24, hosted by the Collab Queen herself, Rachel from Rach and Bella Crafts. Our prompt today is Old-Timey Santa, but with so many fantastic images in Rachel's Nostalgic Noel kits, I couldn't limit myself to just the jolly old fella.
You can find the kits at:
www.etsy.com/s...
or
ko-fi.com/rach...
Rachel has a huge 40% discount through the end of the month (GMT) and there's Freebies too (on Rachel's Ko-Fi shop).
Follow along each day in November (a total of 60 videos) and be sure to like and comment on each video to get in the PRIZE drawings. You'll find all the vids on Rachel's web site, www.rachandbel...
Rachel's kickoff video goes into full detail of all the happenings of the collaboration. • Christmas Collaboratio...
I've sprinkled 5 Hidden Tips for using Digital Kits throughout my video (Evidently I can't count to five, so use the texts, not the audio.). Please leave a comment telling which tip is new to you &/or one you'll use. Please tag me on any Babushka Nesting Tags you make using my tutorial. And, I'd love to be added to your subscription list.
Here's the link to the Babushka Nesting Tags I made a couple years ago: • Babushka Nesting Tags

For more inspiration, come play with us in the Playing with Paper and Glue Facebook Group. / junkjournalideas We are a group of fun-loving Makers, with a variety of styles and expertise.

In this group, you will find inspiration for your junk journals, traveler’s notebooks, embellishments, ephemera, 3D paper sculptures, greeting cards, and other fun stuff made with paper and glue.
Thanks again to Rachel and to you. I appreciate you so much!
