Tim Tag Day 5

I love doing Tim Holtz's Christmas tags mainly because of the different techniques he teaches .... I would never think of making tags like these without his inspiration. The background for this one was quite unusual, see here: http://timholtz.typepad.com/my_weblog/2008/12/12-tags-of-ch-4.html




Big Art Adventure Challenge - Windows

Our challenge on the Big Art Adventure this week is windows.
I chose this image from Artchix; its on a sheet called 'Loveliness'.
I love the quote To those who can dream there is no such place as far away.
Rosie would say she's thinking of her love who is far away........


Gothic Arch - Trees


The theme for this weeks Gothic Arch Challenge is trees.

For the background I used Broken China Distress Ink Pad and splattered it with white acrylic paint.
I chose my favourite squiggly tree stamp from Paper Artsy and kept the snow theme going a bit longer.....

12 Tags of Christmas - Day 3

I had to adapt quite a lot today as I don't have a Father Christmas stamp! Have a look at Tim's here and see what I mean.

I used an image from Digital Collage Sheets and covered it with thick acetate. The tag is made from a sheet of copper. The stamps are from the Tim Holtz ATC sheet from Scrapz.

Now I have 3 tags to put on my presents!

I'm going to try and do Tim Holtz's 12 Tags of Christmas.....this is day 1.
Its very different from his, but I kind of think that's the whole point. I used his basic structure and ideas.
