Hi All.
Today I would like
to show you my tag #3 for Linda's 12 Tags of Christmas. I am doing quite well
keeping up even though it’s not in the right week, but that doesn't matter. If
you go take a look at Linda’s example you will see I have taken my inspiration
from the colours, using brushed pewter distress stain and the marbled stain
technique (see P46 of Tim's Book 2), using metal and stamping on acrylic
packaging. The rest is mine lol.
Recipe
1. Background - marbled
stains technique with brushed pewter, picket fence and weathered wood DSs.
2. Metal - alcohol
inked with denim blue.
3. Deer - die-cut
from reindeer flight in card covered with metal tape. Alcohol inked with denim,
sailboat and silver finished with a light cover of white acrylic paint.
Finished by edging it with a blue sharpie to make it stand out more.
4. Sentiment -
stamped from mini holidays onto acetate packaging, cut out and dabbed with
brushed pewter DS underneath.
5. Snowflakes –
punched & dabbed with weathered wood DS, ice stickles added over the top.
6. White die-cut
dabbed with weathered wood and picket fence DS.
Finished by making
it into one of my extended tags using DP from MME.
Linda's 12 Tags of Christmas is
an inspiration challenge and there will be a winner drawn at the end of the 12
weeks for those who have entered each one. There is plenty of time to take part
as each tag challenge will remain open until the
17th December, so no excuses if you miss any. The sponsor is The Funkie Junkie Boutique, which
is Linda's fantastic on-line store where she stocks lots of fabulous
products to produce vintage, shabby chic projects.
I hope the world is a happy place for you.

Sorry to hear you had mega problems as well (from your post today) and glad you got them sorted as it sounds rather scary.
