Tilda's Christmas Tag

Morning all, it's cold and wet here on the NE coast of England so what would make me feel better? Crafting for Christmas, lol!
Today i have created a Christmas tag. The top layer i cut around some Kraft card with my Fiskars fancy edge scissors and cut the bottom layer straight edged.
The DP was a freebie from a Mag', i used my Magnolia lamppost die, Noor Design snowflake edge die. I stamped my Tilda with memento ink and coloured with my Promarkers.
The little oval frame is from Marianne Design and i stamped a sentiment behind it.
I added some flowers, recycled berries, mini pom pom trim, a bow, twine and lots of Snow-Tex.
