12 Tags of Christmas #12

I'm doing a little happy dance. I made to the end of the 12 Tags of Christmas 2015.
Here he is on display...












I drew my inspiration from Linda's 12th tag below with her use of plaids, corrugated cardboard, the holly leaves, the tag, the metal embellishment and the twine/hemp bow.

I used all of the same elements but changed up their perspective on my project. For example, the hemp is a bow on Linda's tag and it has become the edging of the sweater on my star snowman. The holly is green on hers and I've made mine a wooden texture.  Everything seems similar but used in a different way.
Here they all are together at last!
Linda has extended the contest for another week so if you are still thinking about joining in or needing a little more time, you are in luck! Also, a huge thank you goes to her store, The Funkie Junkie Boutique for supporting this challenge.
Hugs and happy crafting,
Lisa xx

Such a big personality for such a small snow star! They are all just as cute as they can be Lisa. I do believe I like the last one best of all in his cute little coveralls and would you look at that face. He looks like a little bird. He has got his face kinda tilted the way a little bird does.
Congratulations on completing all of your stars!

I'm so pleased you completed the challenge again this year, Lisa. Your star snowmen surely have been the stars of this challenge...completely adorable. And the matching suitcases are brilliant. As always, this little guy has me grinning. So cute and clever. Love the plaid sweater and the way you used the corrugated cardboard for the holly leave.

Thanks again for playing along. Happy New Year to you and your family!
