Tim Holtz 12 Tags of 2015 - November





I was very inspired by Tim's tag this month and I decided to make a colorful, Happy Birthday tag in bright pinks and gold.  Not at all Fall or Thanksgiving themed, but, someone very close to me has a birthday this month.  The edging technique is fantastic!  I love the shiny edges and the dimensional watercolor technique is quite fun once you get the hang of it.  You really can't see the dimensional quality in the photograph, but, the flame and the candle really popped out nicely.


Here are most of the supplies I used.  I cannot remember where I got the punch - I think it was a Christmas gift one year.  Missing from the picture is the watercolor paper and the remnant rub tool.



*** Wow!!  So happy to be selected as a winner! Thank you for all of your  kind comments ***

Honored to be a Winner!


So happy and excited that my entry, 'Magic', was chosen as a winner in the  Lost Coast and Carmen's Veranda Monthly Challenge!  I can't tell you how much I love this company's stamps.  Whenever the Heirloom Rubber Stamp Festival is in town, I head straight to their booth.  I am honored and thank you for selecting my artwork!
