Tim Holtz - 12 tags of Christmas 2009 #11

 Here is my tag #11 for 2009. You can go here to see better examples. Kathy and Allison made wonderful tags. You can see Tim's tag here. You see those buttons. I spent hours attempting to make them without having the right materials. I finally decided enough was enough and put some snowflakes on my flowers. Some days are like that..


Thank you for looking!

Tim Holtz - 12 tags of Christmas 2009 #10

  Yahoo!!.only 2 more to go on our Tim Holtz Christmas tags from start to finish. For this one I have used a Cuttlebug embossing folder rather than Tim's way. I painted the background with alcohol inks / sanded the top of some objects and touched up others with Pigma brush pens. I then sprayed with silver Delta glitter mist. I inked December with distress inks (Ranger) and coated it with glossy accents (Ranger) and touched up with snow ( Marvy liquid Applique). Go here to see Tim's tags 2009 and here to see what Kathy and Allison have done.


Thank you for looking!

Tim Holtz - 12 tags of Christmas 2009 #9

  Yahoo -Only 3 more to go on our Christmas tag journey. I did the techniques Tim used for this tag but didn't add so many embellishments. I have used TH Ranger distress inks- weathered wood, walnut stain and faded jeans. The christmas word and numbers are from my stash and everything else is Tim Holtz. You can check out what he did here. And now I have linked it up with Kathy at "Inkin It Up" so you can see  what others have done. Originally I posted from a campsite in the Kootenays' and I couldn't get anything to work.
Thank you for looking.

Tim Holtz - 12 tags of Christmas 2009 #6

  For the 6th tag of 2009 Tim shows us a clever trick with dictionary paper. You can see it here. As you see I have used a small tree for mine which isn't as effective but it will fit in the Christmas tag holder I am using. My supplies (stamps, inks,25) are all from Tim's collections except the key which is Making Memories. I am linking this up with Alison's blog because she is away but has made a fantastic tag and card for this challenge which you should see. I am also linking with Kathy who has made a wonderful tag as well. 
I hope you are having a great weekend and the sun is shining wherever you are! Thanks for looking!

  Yes, it's another TH Christmas tag. Have patience- we will be finished in time to do Christmas tags 2011. Just kidding - only 8 more to go.For this one Tim had us making a collage background and then the ornament. I didn't have the stuff he used so I improvised. I will be linked up with Kathy and Alison if you want to join in. Christmas in July- Ho Ho Ho!


Thank you for looking and for all of the kind comments .
