Tag 12 Frozen Charlotte Angel!



Oh my did I giggle when I saw this one!

I love it when Tim uses something in a new and different way!
I've always been on the fence with the Frozen Charlottes.
How cool Tim turned her into an angel!
And a naked one at that!

LOVE the Tissue Wrap! It really is cool. What a great 'feel' it has to it. Almost cloth like. Tim posts quite about about the WRAP, so go to his blog and check it out!
AND WHAT ABOUT THOSE FRINGE SCISSORS!
Those will be flying off the shelves at JoAnn's don't you think?

I'm always a little sad when the 12 Tags wrap up. The good thing, we can all get some sleep now.....

BUT the sale doesn't end today!!! You have until December 14th!
I'll keep the 20% off open until then so you can get your order in.

SO, look past the list for today's SPECIAL DEAL in addition to the 20% off on the items Tim used today! Need a Nekid doll? She's 25% off today!

Reindeer Noel Tag

The other day at band camp....

The other day when my friend Gretchen stopped by, I was helping her with an idea for her quote books. Beautiful hand-made books full of various quotes she collects. She wanted a unique cover for a watercolorist. So, she sparked an idea with me, with a very simple technique that always turns out great!

I used Distress Inks pads in Forest Moss, Bundled Sage and Pine Needles, stamped ont watercolor paper, then spritzed with water. WAIT WAIT WAIT
for the inks to blend out, and then heat it with the heat gun!
I over sprayed it with Perfect Mists in Pearls for extra shimmer!



 
I stamped a quote over the card I made from Wendy Vecchi's line. But on the tag, I knew the Reindeer would be perfect!
He has a wreath that is from watch parts!
I used the Tattered Banner Die cut from Kraft Glassine and inked with Picket Fence Distress Stain. It's stamped with music.

The NOEL 25 die was cut from heavier glitter paper by Recollections.



And the Tree, I bleached this. Yes I did! Post below about that!

Tag 11 MELT ART with UTEE and Shrink Plastic




Today's tag is one of my favorites.
(yeah, yeah, yeah, even Tim says' that every day LOL).
But seriously, it is.
 The Christmas Memories
is my favorite Christmas set ever!
I adore the Retro look.
And can you just imagine all the phrases you could put in a comment bubble above Santa's head??
Think Annie Taintor for those that know me....

I've used this set in many of my tags since it came out, and  have yet to stamp the jolly old elf on glossy.




There's not one stamp in the whole set I don't love.
Have you SEEN the 'star' ALL year use people!
I've been stamping it with a Gold Dabber or how about TSUKINEKO'S new
Delicata Ink Pad in GoldenGlitz!
WAWAWAWA  AWOOOOOGA!!!
 REALLY, an amazing gold!


breathe, breathe....


Tim's journaling tickets are a great idea for making quick tags for gifts, or even for an ornament on the tree!
Heck, I'm so beind on card this year,
I may do that!!!!

Tag 10 - Faceted Image Transfer



I LOVE IMAGE TRANSFERs,
and today, on Tim's Blog he does on of the easiest ones out there!
And since it's done with 'toner' based images, it works PERFECT for this using the Paper Stash's!

I'm also loving the use of the Tattered Banner Strip die in the 12 Tags! I love that die!








This is Ted's take on the tag. He uses one of Tim's older sets, CMS015 Road Trip! LOVE the car!!













And Michelles tag ROCK!!!! What a fabulous way to use the Wild West set along with the Retro Grunge Paper Stash! And look at how she pulls that Festive Greenery Strip die in!

There's a good reason why this die has back ordered!!!! It's been used on SO many of the Tags!!!!
