    Super cute tags ladies. I love them all. I use embossing powder a lot the whole year through but Christmas cards and tags just beg for it. LOL

    I'm still experimenting with different ideas, so 'no'... I don't heat emboss more this time of year. Not so far, anyway!
    Lovely tags as always, everyone. Thank you :)

    Adorable tags! I probably use heat embossing this time of year as much as I do other times of the year, not more often, not less often.

    I love heat embossing, and use it all the time. Problem is I have to go from my dining room table to the kitchen to do it!

    Love the little (chicken?) sticking out of the sock on the first card.
    The little items in the jars are really cute.
    Waffle Flower has darling stamps.

    I heat emboss about the same all year long. I think it adds a lot to a design. And it's fun watching the powder turn liquid.

    thanks for the chance to win some wonderful prizes.

    Loving all the great ideas I've gotten.
    I have a glittery white EP that works great for snow (It's called Winter Wonderland), and I love gold and silver on holiday projects, so I probably am doing more heat embossing.

    More great inspiration tags. I live in sunny Southern California however I still go to my dentist where I use to live in the mountains at 6700 ft (a 3 hr. drive). Two weeks ago I went for a cleaning and it was 32 and there was a light dusting of snow. That night it got down to 16 there.

    Love all these tags, especially the mason jar tags! super cute idea! I LOVE to hear emboss all the time, but with so much silver and gold on my cards at the holidays, I definitely heat emboss more this time of year. Thanks for continuing the WOW factor with these gorgeous tags.

    FABULOUS tags today, LOVE the variety of CUTE, FUN and BEAUTIFUL designs!!!
    Your tag is SO ELEGANT Tracey, LOVE your rich red and glorious golden embossing, beautiful stamps too!!!
    I confess that I'm not that good at heat embossing, still trying different powders, especially for more delicate designs, so no, I'm using my punches and dies more at this time of the year.

    Wonderful selection of tags. Like Melissa above, I think those mason jar tags are very special. I do think that heat embossing, esp. silver and gold, work really well for Christmas cards.

    What sweet tags! The monkey is as cute as a button!

    I think my embossing may be the same or even less. Trying to get more cards completed and eliminating embossing helps reduce creation time. :)

    Cute tags! I'm new to Waffle Flower, but I've liked what I've seen made with their stamps. Thanks for showcasing them.

    So, I do heat emboss more on holiday cards -- it's a great way to jazz up a simple card when one has to do mass productions. Plus, it helps heat up my usually cold craft room. lol
