Tim's Tag Day 2

Have you checked out Tim's Tag 2.  I was surprised at how quickly this came together.  I stamped my tag with Stampin' Up's Music Notes then painted it with Antique White acrylic paint and wiped it off before it dried.  I used my heat gun to help the drying process.  I sponged on a bit of Broken China then sprayed glimmer mist on it.  I cut the antlers off of the deer, ran it through my Xyron, placed a square of muslin on it and hand cut it out.  After sponging on some Brushed Corduroy ink I think it looks almost like Tim's. For the border I used a scrap of  tan cardstock, punched with the scallop border punch, inked with Vintage Photo and added pearls.

I am entering this into the Inspiration Journal Challenge.

Tim's Tag - Day 1

Since I'm feeling better I started looking at Tim Holtz 12 Tags of Christmas and I just can't resist. I thought I could just look at them and say next year but that just isn't happening. So here's my take on Tim's Day 1.

I used my Cricut and several cartridges to make this tag and will have a list at the bottom of the post.  I cut the tag out of kraft cardstock and used Desert Turquoise Acrylic Paint to paint my tag, and embossed with the Cuttlebug Snowflake Folder.  I forgot to distress the tag by sanding - 1 step skipped.  I used the Snowflakes embossing folder, the Xyron on the "Noel"
