CCC #23 - Double Distress P. 40

Hi Everyone,

Here is my tag for week 23 of A Compendium of Curiosities challenge.  I used Tim's Snowman and Snowflake Alterations embossing folders along with three shades of blue distress ink, some Tim snowflake tape, perfect pearls mist and a little bit of bling.  Please let me know what you think.  It appears that this tag also can be included in the Simon Says challenge for this week since it is "Let It Snow". How cool is that?

CCC Tag Book

Hello Everyone,

Today I made a book for the first 22 tags from the CCC challenges.  I did put a closer on it but as you can see it does not work to well since the book is  so fat.  I will have to figure out some other way. Right now it is the rubber-band.  Anyone have any suggestions for me?

CCC #21 - Perfect Distress P. 38

Hello Everyone,

I am not totally caught up with the A Compendium of Curiosities challenge. Yippee!!  Here is my tag #21. I like this challenge.  I left it pretty plain so you could see the background.  Please let me know what you think.

CCC #20 - Industrial Grunge P. 54

Hi Everyone,

Here is my tag for the CC challenge #20.  I am SO late on this one.  I think it turned out really well.  The ornaments came from Tim's Seasonal Grunge.  Please let me know what you think.

CCC #22 - Alcohol Ink Splatter P. 52

Hello Everyone,

I am still behind on my tags for the CC Challenge but I just had to skip ahead and try this weeks challenge. I LOVE this technique. You absolutely must try it. Please let me know what you think. I used my Alterations Tag die for the tag.  Love it! I used Tim's stamp set Santa's Wish and a ribbon from the Lavish Trimmings and of course his alcohol inks. Now I just need to finish up my other two tags:)

2011 Calendar Swap

Hello  Everyone,

At ATT (All Things Tim) we are doing a Calendar page swap.  You create a 6X6 calendar page and get back an entire year of wonderful work created by 12 different people.  I am so excited to see what I get back.  Here is the page I created for my month of December. Please let me know what you think. I used Tim's Snowman Alterations die and snipped off his nose so I could get a front view. I really love how he turned out.  Most everything used is from Tim Holtz.  You can see a lot of his new products.
