Inspired Stamps is kicking off Christmas in July with a layered Christmas tag blog hop, if you came from Jamie's blog you are on the right track. If not, feel free to click here to start from the beginning at the Inspired Stamps blog.
I used HLO Choir Boy/Angel for my tag today with the sentiment from the Winter Ruth set (Inspired Stamps). I just love his sweet face, don't you? I colored the image with Copic markers and added stickles to his halo and wings.
I added a layer of gray stone paper and a strip of music note dp (both from the Paper Studio). I covered the seam with a piece of silver glitter ribbon to go with the glitter I applied to both my angel's halo and wings. I used foam tape to pop up angel on to the doily. I stamped the sentiment on the same gray stone paper and cut apart the phrase, inked the edges with black ink for more dimension and glued it to the doily. I also cut a washer from gray stone paper and placed it over tag hole and added a piece of silver velvet glitter ribbon. Not your traditional red and green for Christmas but I think this tag would make any package shine. Jenn's blog is next, click here. Have fun on the hop and remember to take advantage of the Christmas in July savings at Inspired Stamps.

I like your soft color scheme, and how you used a doily. I've never used a doily with a boy before, but I don't know why now...Good job.
