Tim Holtz -Tag Tags of 2013

Image
March When Tim posted his March tag for the 12 Tags of  2013  I knew I was going to have to do some major improvising because although I have a lot of Tim Holtz products in my stash, the only things I had this time was the Foliage and Memo Pins.   It took me a few days to wrap my head around it... but in the end I'm really happy with how my tag turned out  and it was nice to have some creative time at my art desk. Thanks for stopping in and feel free to leave me a comment and let you me know you stopped by! Anna I didn't have the Fringe Die so I  cut my grass by hand.  I looked at the picture of the die and sized my grass to match  Tim's.  I had Green Co-ordinations but not the Kraft one...so my grass is green on both sides of the fence.  I sanded the paper first and then gave it a good dose of Walnut Stain Distress Ink before cutting.  Then after I put it on my tag, I gave it a little hint of Picked Raspberry. ...

What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday? As always I'm running late posting my workdesk, but a busy day at work and then I had errands to run  which kept me away from my desk until late this evening.

Stamps are by Stamp Camp .   ...

A beautiful day today with temperatures in the low to mid 70's. Too bad I really didn't feel good enough to enjoy it. I stayed home from work with absolutely NO voice!! The crummy cold is getting the better of me! Mariah has also been battling a cold for over a week now...so it was time to go to the doctor. She came home with antibiotics, and my doctor called in antibiotics for me. LOL so the afternoon was spent running to get them filled. There is a boat ramp that I passed on the way to and from Mariah's doctor's appt. There are three dead trees in the water and all kinds of water birds like to perch there. Today one of them was filled with caracaras both coming and going to the appt. I've looked at these trees for years and saying I wanted to shoot them...so while on a med run I thought I'd go back that way and try to shoot them. But alas, they weren't there by the time I went back...but I did find a few things to shoot. There is a metal spool down i...
