Last two Tim TAgs!

Well the Tim Holtz 12 Tags of Christmas are sadly over. :( But I played along with each one this year, and I had so much fun. I learned a lot of new things, and made some tags I'm very happy with...and some that I think I may have had to improvise a little too much on. lol
Here are my final two tags from 2009!! HUGE thanks to Tim for all the time and energy he puts into these every year...Especially this year under the circumstances. I've added to my TH collection of products throughout the 12 tags, and I'm still waiting on some goodies from ScrapFan...can't wait for them to arrive! btw, if you're reading this before the end of Sunday Dec. 13th...they're having a huge sale, 30% off all reg. price merchandise...hop on over!




Now, in other equally exciting news...The Scrapping Nook Inc. is officially no longer. They had a very successful firesale this weekend, which I was soooo happy to be able to be a part of! It was a time of mixed emotions for sure, but I think in the end they're relieved to have this off the radar before Christmas. Now we can all look ahead with anticipation to the GRAND OPENING OF THE SCRAPPING NOOK LTD!!!!

I believe it is scheduled for January 9th right now, but that could potentially change. They're moving to a new store in WELLAND, in a super great location, and Janice Veltkamp is the new owner! Please pop by the forum (click link above)and stop in to say hello!

Day 10 tag, and Purple Onion Designs contest/sale!



Purple Onion Designs is having a winter sale!! 25% off all stamps until Dec. 15th! This is a great deal! All of their stamps are unmounted red rubber that make BEAUTIFUL impressions!

I have used the flourishes from the Ornamentals set on all of my tags until today's tag. lol

Speaking of today's tag...here it is!


Early 1900's music background was used on my lamp post tag too! :)

Day 3 tags!





Here they are! Today's cool technique was making a plaid with your alcohol inks...I'm not very good at it yet though. lol
HEre's what my plaids look like before cutting them up for the tags...


Thanks for stopping by!

Tim's 12 Tags of Christmas!

I Love this time of year!! I love following Tim Holtz 12 tags of Christmas every year, and especially this year, since he almost didn't do them! {GASP!!!}


I'm playing along this year, with a goal of doing all 12 tags with him...Don't hold your breath. lol

So far, so good though...here are my first two day's worth of tags. ;0)

I'm even doing multiples, so I have a few extra to go on the goodies our family delivers to neighbours on Christmas Eve!



Day One tags..

I don't have any of the Christmas TH stamps, so I had to improvise, but I was glad to pull out this old SU! set and my new POD flourish stamp!

Day two tags


I did have his frame stamp that he used for today's tag! On day one I used #5 shipping tags, and for day two I cut 3.5 X 6" tags, and cut the corners to make them into tags. My desk is such a huge mess right now that I can't find my cropadile to make the proper holes for the ribbon! lol

Anyway, this is my first two days worth! Who else is playing along?
