Tim's 12 Tags of 2014 - May

It's May and already hotter than blazes outside.  Here is my interpretation of Tim's tag.  I have no idea where my tags are so I used a small gift bag as my base.  I'm sure I can use it for a gift...maybe Mother's Day.

I liked the tiles and layering the embellishments.  My first instinct was to go shopping for more stuff but once I took out everything from my stash I was surprised at how much I had.

I also wanted to share this gift wrap I got from Wal-Mart.  The brand is Soreh Designs.  It was by all of the gift bags and cards.  I love the messages and I plan to use the tissue paper in my art journal.

Have a great Monday!

My First Simon Says Stamp Challenge - Thank You!

Hello!

I'm excited to share this card with you.  It took FOREVER to make!  I just kept fussing around with it because I don't want all my cards and projects to look so similar but in the end who cares.  As long as I'm havin fun that's all that matters!

I love the theme of this Simon Says Stamp Challenge.  This is my favorite time of year.  

I'm so thankful for family and friends and I'm ready to kick off the holidays!

 I did take something new from this card - I used Tim Holtz tissue tape to mimic writing for my background.  It was way too plain back there and I didn't want to stamp so the tape worked out great.

I'm off to Paris....

I wish!  No, I'm not going to Paris but I did create two tags for this week's Fussy and Fancy challenge...Trip around the World.  I did a lot of stamping and fabric collage.  I tried not to think too hard.  I just added random bits and here are the finished tags...

This will be my last post for the Fussy and Fancy DT.  I have had a great time on the team and will continue to follow and participate in their great challenges.  Thank you for following along with me and I hope you have a chance to join in this weeks challenge!
