Tim's Tags - Day 5

Here is my take on Tim Holtz Day 5 tag. Again I am working on a card. The edging technique did not quite go right for me. I think my paint is a little tooo watery, but over all I like the effect I have.

I am starting to think the snowman looks like he is flying ! The torn music sheet banner really makes this ! I did look at adding the numbers too , just seemed like toooo much !

Let there be Snow .....

.... and Tim Holtz 12 Xmas Tags !

Woke on Wednesday morning to a thick layer of SNOW ! Living on the south downs the views have been amazing ! I ended up working at home all week. Between have a terrible cold over last weekend and into this week... then the snow reduced my transport options and hubby getting the same cold too !!! Was magical ... Been out each day feed the birds , both wild and domestic.

Here a few images to share with you all. No chickens in the snow, they were not up for venturing out !

There is a willow standing outside in view of the kichen window. This is where the bird feeders hang. There is a group of around 20 birds who we call the raiders. They are very organised. Two sit on the feeder pushing the food out and the rest hop round the ground eating it up !!




It must be December as Tim Holtz has started his 12 days of Xmas Tags ... http://www.timholtz.typepad.com/
This year I have started to try to make a set where I can. We up to day 5 now ... But yesterday I make day 1,3 and 4 ... You'll also note that mine are not tags. Well as I don't have any tags the right size I am making 12 cards !

DAY1

Sizzix UK have a sale on Xmas items. Well at 80% off why would you fight it ... Yesterday the following arrived. The JOY shakers is great. I do not yet have the snowman or decorations which you see it used with normally... But looking forward to getting other words !

The textures are great. I think the snow man is my fav =)








AND Finally . . .
We have started to decorate with all the Yule decorations. The house is larger and I have used all our decoration just in the living room. The rest of the house is still being sorted, I guess next year I will be looking to top up the boxes of decorations. We just have the tree to put up now.

BRIGHT BLESSINGS

FOR THE SEASON !
