My workshop tag for tomorrow, another take on Tim's tag for the faux riveted metal technique. My ladies at The Art of Craft wanted to do a tag and always want to do something for a man, so I combined their requests.
I did the typewriter Tim's way and added a pen nib.
Lots of metal embellishments .......
and die cut gears in turquoise metal sheet.
I hope they like it.
I was so pleased to find that I made the top 5 at Live and Love Crafts with the shadow box I sent out as a Secret Santa. Thanks girls for choosing me.

Catching Snowflakes
My Grandaughter in the snow on Monday, having made a mini snowman with her sister she then went out on her own to catch snowflakes and look at them with a magnifying lens. I love it when children explore and observe to learn new things.
Here are both of them with the snowman they made.
