I really enjoy the Tim Holtz 12 tags.  I take the challenge and create with some of the items that he uses that I have on hand and substitute with others.  The best part is learning the techniques that Tim shares with us every month.  If I had been a little more ambitious I would have found an old b/w photo of mine to use but I wasn't in the mood to go hunting for one and wanted to get the tag done.  I used a scrap of music themed paper instead of words and a close to my heart rosette that I died with tumbled glass distress stain.  My little jewel is a Making Memories piece.  The stamp that I used was a tattered angels stamp set that I had on hand that I really like.  I hope you enjoy checking out my tag, thanks for looking and thanks to Tim for his creating!

Tim Holtz 12 tags for May.  This tag was fun because I had to get a new stamp set, but then I just improvised because my melting pot doesn't come til next week after the deadline for uploading.  Hope you like my version!

Nature my favorite subject

A pair of rather bold Canadien Geese in the marshland near Glen Lake.  I love how they were just standing there one legged and they didn't seem to mind me taking some picts.  So beautiful!

April Tim Holtz Tag

I just love following Tim Holtz's blog so much creative energy.  So this month I tried my hand at interpreting his April tag from the 12 tags series.  I tried to follow the same techniques but giving it my own creative touch.  Hope you enjoy this tag...

Silhouette Cameo Oh My!

So I ordered the new Silhouette Cameo 12 x 12 digital cutter. After my much awaited excitement this machine is everything the old one had and so many improvements. It cuts much faster, a little quieter, and finally 12 x 12! I just love it and have I ever played:

I even tried the pens and print and cut and everything works perfectly!

My favorite CTMH product is...

their clear stamps every last one.   They make stamping so much fun and because they are clear and very well made you can never miss your spot stamping with their exclusive inks on their wonderful paper sets.

Welcome girls!

I hope you all enjoyed your time at my house last evening, I would like to try and set up this blog to be useful to all of us and hopefully it could be resource for us to use.
