...actually, this is my second one for this Christmas but I am a right old copycat !!! Have you seen Tim's new 12 Tags? His first one yesterday was ... totally awesome ...(I said that in an American accent cos I am was so inspired LOL) He is doing a tag a day for twelve days....and I am hoping to be able to emulate them all...I have had to improvise a little on this one as I don't have one of the Flourishes (yet *wink-wink*)
I got to use all my fave products on this one, Grungeboard, Rock Candy Cracklepaint and Rock Candy Stickles...as well as Picket Fence Stickles and Distress Inks. If you are a fan of Tim's then you cannot miss out on these...so if you click HERE then you can be transported, as if by magic, to his Blog :O) And, apparently, if you leave a comment you can be in with a chance of winning some stash!
As well as decorating the front of my tag, I got a bit carried away and went for it with the back of it too... I found that the front tag got a bit bendy with all the cracklepaint on it...so I thought I could make another one, stick them together and then they would be sturdy :O) I just stamped onto the back tag...but did use some white paint and a waterbrush to try and make the snowflakes on the snowman show up a bit more...and I also spodged some Picket Fence onto this too. I am going to attempt to make all of the tags this year...me and Wendy from The Stamp Attic have been discussing the tags and she is being really kind and helping me out with the lack of stamps *wink wink again*...and... all of Tim's fab stamps are available on her website.
Thanks for looking...hope that you get chance to play and make the tags too :O))
