Oh my, so much inspiration already, and this is only day 1. Your tags are great to get started and to loosen up the creative muscles, but I also spotted a few stamps that I own and that are begging to be inked up and coloured in using my new Copics (also perfect for Kathy's 30D colouring challenge).

Hoping to play along again this year! Thanks to you and the guys for all the fun, Jo x
Wow wow wow!! These are all FABULOUS!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow!! So much to be inspired by here Tracey. It's going to be hard to choose which one to go with. Love the purple on you sweet snowflake tags. Thanks for all your hard work putting this fun challenge together. Happy tag making!
All tags are awesome and I love love Shari's tag too. Thanks for inviting us to the party, Tracey! My honor♡ Hugs♡
I have been so looking forward to the start of this tag party! Today I'm ooohing and aaahing over Shari's exquisite Tim Holtz tag design! WOW Shari! So much inspiration and I can't wait to CASE this tag. It's awesome to see the other SSS-W challenge designer's projects too! Hugs, Autumn
Love all the tags. I always enjoy your 25 Day of Christmas Tag.
Hi Tracey and Thank YOU for organizing this event again this year. I always learn so much and get so inspired by the DT's tags.I am a HUGE fan of tags ALL year through but Christmas is of course when you need the most, all at the same time and I like making different ones rather than mass producing. So this is one hop I try not to miss. However, today consisted of a long line up (not complaining by any means) so I hope I can find time to check them all out each day as I hate to miss any. They are ALL amazing. Great work by all of the designers!
I look forward to this every year for it inspires me to start creating for Christmas. Thank you.
Love all the tags and your pretty purple ones too. TFS
What a great start with Day 1! All are so inspiring! Love your take with pretty snowflakes and purple hues!
Yaay! I look forward to 25 days of BEAUTIFUL tags for holiday inspiration that lasts all year! THANK YOU SO MUCH for organizing all of this for us Tracey!
There are so many great tags today. But if I have to choose a favorite . . . it's the moose! Guy tags are sometimes hard. The moose is perfect!
Wow, so many gorgeous and cute tags. Hugz
Oh my... So many inspirations to follow. Hope I am able to link my tags too.
Wowie, so much beautiful inspiration! I am inspired by just about everything! lol I love how Kim curled her ribbons. Love the darling moose! Shari's tag is so beautifully dimensional. I look forward to participating again this year; so fun! Thanks, Tracey!
Hi TrAcy. Sooo excited to see this return for 2018! So many new ideas,
Wow! Beautiful tags! Each one is so unique and so creative!
First of all, thank you for organizing this again this year!! I love Shari's beautiful tag!! But, the others you have featured in today's blog post are all so wonderful, it would be hard to choose a favorite. And, of course, your purple tags are so pretty, Tracy!
Great kick off to your 25 Days event, Tracey! I love all of today's tags.... Time to put away all the Halloween bits and pieces and think about Christmas!
Beautiful tags from everyone!
Wonderful tags, Tracey. You always come through in a pinch. Such an inspiration. Thanks so much for having me on your team. It's been a blast so far, and the fun has only just begun. Can't wait to hear your familiar voice and watch the video, to see how you made your magic on these tags.
So many beautiful tags! Choosing one for inspiration is going to be hard, especially with all of the SSS goodies I own. *blush*
WOW...love your festive holiday tags! Those colors are just stunning paired with those sweet snowflakes! So excited to be creating with you again this year!

So much fabulous inspiration!! Great way to kick things off, ladies. Tracey, I love your purple tags, and also love Karin's fox, and Kim's poinsettia tags. Hoping to play along often.
Fabulous tags by the SSS teams, and your DT as well, Tracey! I know this is going to keep you hopping for the next several weeks, but do take a little time for yourself, my friend. Thanks for doing this. I always enjoy seeing all the tags, and I will most definitely play along. : ) Bev

So excited to have the 25 tags of Christmas happening again. I love seeing all the great ideas and inspiration! Today the one that caught my eye is the tag by Larraine Aquilina.

All of these are amazing! But Mindy Baxters tag has me swooning! I cant get over how beautiful it is!
Thanks for hosting this event once again. I hope to join the fun as much as I can.
Such fun and beautiful tags love the bunnies in the sweaters.
I am feeling the inspiration, so many varied designs, ahh the temptation to spend even more just to have the same look. Brilliant tags and again love yours.
These tags are super fun! I especially love the ones made with the story book dies... the moose is so cute!
Seriously how do I choose which one to be inspired by??? too many options.
You're off to a great start, Tracey! I love the color palette you chose for the Oxide inks...so pretty!
What a FAB first day! Wonderful sponsor company and such pretty festive tags to kick start some creativity. Congrats on your 8th year! Hugs Bev x
So much fantastic inspiration, Tracey ... and it's only Day 1! I especially love your emboss resist snowflakes ... the sense of depth you created with the inking and delicate splatters is fabulous! Hugs, Anita :)
OMG - I cannot believe how many incredible tags are on just day 1. So much inspiration!

I'm blown away by all these amazing tags! I would never be able to select a favorite!
I'm here again for this beautiful event. I hope for this every year :D
Ypur tag is amazing!, this first day i aweson!
Wow, that's a lot of inspiration for the first day! Shari's classic Christmas tag is stunning! I always enjoy her work. I love the snowflake tag you created - it's perfect for mass producing. I like to create as many different tags as possible, but I have to have some that I can easily make multiples of as well. My favorite tag today is Marge's sweater-clad bunnies! That one just stole my heart!
What a way to start off with a bang! I love all these tags, they're all so beautiful.
Love all the Storybook critters! Especially the snowman! :)
What an incredible, amazing start to "tag season". Can't wait to start on tags inspired by some of these.
Love all the cute critters, snowflakes and poinsettias. Thanks to all the sponsors!

Wow!! It's a tie with these tags!!! Tracy, your use of the purple is so amazing, but Ankita Agrawal's tags were so elegant!! You both have done amazing work!!
Wow! So inspiring!!! I love the poinsettia's and all the woodland influences. So wonderful!
I just love Lin's snowman tag....bright, festive colors and I love that funky font for the sentiment.
This is so much fun! I love to see all the different styles and colors of tags. There a too many that I adore to be able to choose just one. Thanks for organizing this and the inspiration it brings!
Such beautiful tags and inspiration! Loving the snowflakes!
Jo's red and kraft card is so awesome. I especially like the sugared jingle bells.
These are all so pretty! I love the scene Lin and Mindy created. :)

Tons of inspiration!! Tracey, your tag inspired me for the one I'm linking up today! So beautiful and a wonderful video! Thank you for hosting this awesome event each year!
Really like two-layer tags so I think I'm gonna go with Ankita's die cut vellum over PP beauty.

So much amazing inspiration!! Love every single tag!!! The one with the the elk/reindeer on it, but really hard to pick a fave from so many amazing pieces!
Oh my goodness!! I just discovered "25 Days of Christmas Tags" while I was looking for inspiration for my Christmas tags and cards. How wonderful!
Thank you for organizing such a talented group designers. It's day 1 and I've already saved ideas to my "Inspiration" folder for later.
this is going to be sooo much fun, but I have some catching up to do!
Those funny bunnies in sweaters, eek! So adorable!
Shari is amazing - these tags are wonderful - thanks for all the inspiration ... lots of pinning here!
Love all the SSS inspiration here! I especially love that bold red Merry Christmas against the craft cardstock, Carol!
These are all so pretty, it’s hard to pick just one. I love the tag by Debby Yates with the lovely wreath.
