TH Tags for 2009

One of my goals this year is do all the TH tags that I have left, I'm working on 2009.  Here's days 1, 5, and 6.  Must have them complete before he starts up his12 tags  in 2011, not many to do.  2009 - 9 left, 2007, 6 left.

December ATC -- All That Jazz

These colors were fun, I inked the white cardstock background with yellow, green, and red... and used Rock Candy Stickles on the stamped image....gave it a lift with foam stickies before mounting it on the orange and green papers....

Gift Card Holder

Needed a quick gift card holder, and what better papers to spice up Christmas

Used Club Scrap's All That Jazz for the papers and ribbons... I love the colors of this kit! Mixed it with A Very Groovy Christmas stamps, got the directions from a Splitcoast Stamper blog.

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 12

Well, here it is! The final tag! I'm so bummed that this is it! I could do this forever.... but I'll just finish up last years, since I was unable to do 2009... and I think I'm only missing a few of 2007... Off I go!

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 11

Ok... here's my day 11.... I loved that he put purple and blue together, I love those 2 colors together... am also loving that he showed us how to make our own stamps... however, that may mean I have to get a Vagabond to do it....hmmmmm..... Well, I used his musical note mask instead....Boy he really got my creativity working again, I'm glad of that, and also made me realize .... I NEED LOTS MORE STUFF!!! LOL!!!

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 10

Here's day 10... I didn't have the snowman, but I had the negative side of the snowman that came in his grungeboard seasonal pack a few years back (I knew I didn't want to throw the negative side away for a reason), so I traced it on plain grungeboard, got my exacto knife out, painted them and VOILA!!!  Found some plastic snowflakes from another tag project a couple years ago with him, and put those on... really looking forward to my Cuttlebug after seeing everything he's doing with dies this year...

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 9

I love it when I have a day I can play hooky from working on the road.
So here's day 9, I used the vellum I had from one of our kits, it was more flexible, I tried using Musical Interlude paper, but it kept ripping.... even used the new Christmas stamp from Club Scrap!

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 8

Here's today's tag.... I've decided that I really need to get more embellishments... when I end the tag with ribbons, and bling... I don't have much... didn't realize it til I started doing the tags... so it's off to shop tomorrow ;)

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 7

So here's day 7, and the easier way for me to do it ... I had the canvas, but not the grungepaper, so after I sprayed the canvas, I stuck it to the back of another sticky canvas.... kind of worked, it was pliable.. .then I just cut the petals out by hand, didn't have a punch... or die machine...

Made my own mists to spray... and used a stripe for a background instead of the woodgrain....

I don't have alot of his stuff anymore... but I'm determined to get more again!!!!!!

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 6

Here's my day 6, I had NOTHING that Tim Holtz was using... ... but it was fun finding ways to  make it look close ;) Having fun with these!  Oh, and I was one of his winners today!  So I'm getting a prize package of his awesome stuff!

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 5

Here's my day 6... something tells me I need to order a different Santa Claus stamp

Finished!

Last set of Christmas cards done!  And they're out in the  mail tomorrow!  This was made using Club Scrap's Sonoma and Gratitude Kit, along with their Christmas stamps.

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 4

Here's day 4 ( and have you seen Tim's day 5?  LOVE IT!! Old school!) I searched my local stores for bling on a roll, with no  luck... so disappointed,  but I'm still liking it...took me all day to decide what to  do....

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 3

Here's my day 3, I was discouraged when I didn't have the bird (but I used one of TH clear stamp sheets on plain grungeboard), and no tissue tape (used my handy dandy ATG gun, and plastered a few strips on the back of musical note ribbon) .... I even went as far as to clip a little bit of our garland off our Christmas tree and give it a hair cut....  :D

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 2

Here's Day 2.... Improvising alot, but more challenging ;)

Tim Holtz Tags, Day 1

Here's my attempt at this years' Tim Holtz' 12 Tags of Christmas, I improvised quite a bit, but I like the results.

The first of many!!

Here are the 1st 2 Christmas cards of the season, more to come!  WoW kit is used on the Holly one, and last year's CS Stencil is used for the ornament card.

I feel like.....

Getting inky this weekend!!!  So, I've got a wedding cake to do for 10/10/10 (hmmmm).... this weekend I'll be making the Autumn Leaves out of gumpaste to start the decorations (I'll post pics when I'm done).... but I've also dragged out some Club Scrap kits, my Tim Holtz inks, my TH masks and my tags!  I can't wait for TH to do his 12 tags of Christmas, but in the meantime, I might catch up on the tags I'm missing from last year, or his monthly challenges that were a few years back.  I did most of the them but DID miss a few.  I also dragged out my hubby's Bamboo, might give that a whirl and play on the computer with that, haven't use it at all and someone was saying that it's great for digi scrapbooking.... Happy Friday!

September ATC cards, Arts N Craft kit

This is for the Monthly ATC Club with Club Scrap.  This month's kit was perfect, but aren't they all! Hard to see, but the main leaves in center are glittered, and the flower was the stamp image used with Glossy Accents.

I'm off to shop!!!!!

Well, I have a wedding cake to make next month, so I'm off to find gumpaste to make autumn leaves for the cake... should be interesting!  ...and as long as I'm in there, I might as well see what they've got for Tim Holtz supplies.... it's getting close to his 12 Tags of Christmas.. ok, well, almost getting close, I can't wait to see what he's got planned for this year.... off I go!  I'll post pics if I find something good!

Ready to go!

How's the blog look??  Well, we'll let it go for awhile.  Now off to work on the 365 Blog ;)

New Header!!!

Sunday I'll be working on a new header to make my page a little more up to date!!  Using Club Scrap digi of course!!!  I'm also working on my 365 Blogger, in the works, so if you see it, follow it.  It's getting itself ready for 1/1/2011!  See ya soon!

View of the front cover...

This is a project that I worked on this spring, it's from Club Scrap, and it's call the Nook Book Project.  LOVED doing this!  I love things that require ink, paint, glue!!! The 2 pictures below this post show the book opened and the 2 acrylic panels slid out.

This is the "book" opened, but the pages are inside its nook, with pull tab at top and side ready to pull out 2 other pics.

This is the inside "book", the pages (2) pull out of the book (actually a box made to look like a book with a cover).  So this is it opened and pages out.

Testing out Blogger on the Go!

Digital Pic from PSL

I did have time to join Club Scrap's PSL team this summer, and here's a couple of the digital layouts I did. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE digi... but again, I can't wait to get inky!

Time to get back into the swing of things!

Alright, enough playing the last few months. The weather here in Vermont is soon to be cool, and that means it's time to spend time in the house and do some crafty things. I think I've found my motivation again, so I'm going to try and get some crafty things done this week with Club Scrap's newest kit, Arts & Crafts. I'm also going to work on my blog a little bit and spruce it up. Time to get busy!!!! Tried my hand at FFCing, but in this town it's hard to get people to jump on board with the economy the way it is.... guess I'll have to enjoy the kits, and keep them to myself ;)
