Twelve tags- Day #7

I really love this tag. It is so subtle and yet looks so detailed and deep witht that ghost stamping technique. Very cool results. I had to include the angel on my tag as I think it is just beautiful! This is one of my favorite sets of Tim's stamps. love the alcohol inks on glassine paper also. I had not tried that before today. I am kind of surprised that I caould go right to my pack of glassine paper at all! Usually most of my time is spent digging for the supplies.

Twelve Tags- Day 6

i am finally getting this one uploaded. I have to say, I was NOT impressed with this tag as I was making it. Was actually thinking it was headed towards the trash. That is until I burnished off some of the paint and then inked and embossed. Wow! What a difference that made! Very cool technique, thanks Tim!

Twelve Tags- Day 5

This one was pretty hard for me like many others, but I finished it anyway. Several spots are blurry. I didn't make a wreath, as I really loved the stains and crackle paint grunge-board from day 4, I made an ornament the same way an the numbers 25. i haven't even gone and looked at today's yet and have to go to my grandson's Christmas program real soon so back to catch up tomorrow. LOL

Twelve tags- Day 4

I really loved this tag for day 4! Love, love, love the crackled paint, distress stain baked grungeboard! Gonna do this again and again! Thanks Tim! Love the glossy accents in the cut out 25 also. Very cool results! Since I cannot throw anything away, I have tons of the clear plastic packaging to use also. My friends used to make fun of me for keeping it as I kept it before anyone was doing anything with it. LOL

Day 3- Twelve tags

Wow, I have never really liked this technique before, but after following it better and really concentrating, I got a stamp pad made and it works! i think the embossing really adds a lot to it. Loved the curling tip from Tim and the bell really makes it cute!

Twelve Tags- Day #2

I remembered to get a quick picture of my version of Day #2's tag while it was still light out so here it is. I chose a paper that was a bit too dark but it still came out ok. Love the canvas deer and will be doing this again!

I am already a day behind but I have yesterday's tag done and am going into my studio to start today's after this post. i pretty much followed the instructions to a tee today but I had so much fun making the pine-cones that I made extras and added them all. I just used some loose pearl beads for my baubles and cut my Noel die cut from glitter cardstock so no messy hands here. LOL
