tim's tags of 2013 - January



Evening all! Well its been another full day - managed to do mine and my mums shopping and go to an exercise class - Penny's hair has been put right too - as the photos below show:


Not sure why the second one has come up in black and white - but you get the idea - I think she looks very cute and cheeky and is totally forgiven - we had a few tears though as I'm sure you can imagine!

Onto today - I've decided to join in with Tim's tags this year - and here's Tims then mine:







I've enjoyed doing this - used a couture embossing folder and DI scattered straw, wild honey, faded jeans and walnut stain. Also Distress stain antique paper. I've used momento metallic inks to colour the cogs that I cut with spellbinders dies into grunge paper - the words are William Blake and the stamp from clarity. The brad and watch charm were from my lovely mum for christmas - I think the charm is creative expressions. The hand is paperartsy.

  10. Love her hair cut - she's just as cute as can be! Her short hair fits her and lets the curls show more. Great tag too and a fantastic take on Tim's version.

  11. Hi Rachel, Penny looks like a gorgeous little angel with her short hair and I bet she feels better for it too. I love your take on Tim's tag, it is amazing. I too have the same embossing folder and die that you do and not the ones he used. I was a bit worried about doing mine but you have inspired me to get a move on with it! Hugs, Anne x
